It is possible to pay for your journey with Waterbus with OVpay, your ultimate payment convenience for public transport. With OVpay, you get more freedom of choice when it comes to travel. By making use of the latest technology, we make sure checking in and out of public transport is safe and reliable. Now and in the future.
Simply hold your contactless debit or credit card, or mobile up to the card reader or gate and you’ve checked in. When you arrive at your destination, check out the same way. It’s that easy. Ensure you use the right card when checking in and out.
How it works: step-by-step
- Hold your contactless debit or credit card or your mobile phone up to the card reader. A single beep means you've checked in. To ensure you use the right card, take the one you want out of your wallet.
- At your destination, hold the same card you checked in with up to the card reader, just as with any public transport smart card. Two beeps means you’ve checked out.
- The payment is processed automatically; You’ll see the amount with the description NLOV on your statement the next day. The price you pay will be the same as a standard ticket or trip with the OV-chipkaart without subscriptions or discounts.
- Do you want to review your travel itinerary from a previous day? Enter the 14-digit code that appears on your bank statement next to NLOV into the web tool below. As well as the price that was debited from your account.
