How-to: Making contactless payments (including Pay apps and contactless bankcards) at Ventra readers
If you have a contactless card from your bank or a phone, watch or other device with a contactless Pay app set up, you can use it directly for a Pay-as-you-go fare with Ventra instead of needing to get a card or ticket from us first!

You can just tap to pay like in London/NYC/others. The CTA will charge your card $5 but when the charge posts it will be $2.75 (or is it $2.50?).
