Samsung Gulf Electronics and the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) have teamed up to revolutionize how people get around in Dubai. This means that if you have a Samsung smartphone, you can now use it to ride the Metro and other public transport options by installing a digital Nol card through the NolPay app.
How It Works?
Digital Nol Cards
The RTA and Samsung have joined forces to make digital Nol cards available for Samsung smart devices. This means you don’t need to carry your physical Nol card around anymore.
Agreement Signing
A formal agreement was signed by Mohammed Al-Mudharreb, the CEO of Corporate Technology Support Services Sector, representing RTA. This agreement marks a significant step towards Dubai’s goal of becoming a smart city and a leader in the region for making public transportation cards digital on smartphones.
Usage
These digital Nol cards are not just for public transportation. You can also use them for easy digital payments at various stores and shops all over Dubai.
Samsung’s Perspective
Fadi Abu Shamat, who heads the Mobile experience Division at Samsung Gulf Electronics, expressed excitement about this partnership. Both Samsung and RTA want to make life more convenient for customers and make daily life simpler. With digital Nol cards, people can enjoy a more convenient, efficient, and seamless public transportation experience.
Cashless Convenience
Samsung users who download the NolPay app can now make cashless transactions or pay on the go by simply tapping their smartphone or smartwatch. This technology isn’t just for transportation; it can also be used at specific retail stores, grocery shops, public parks, museums, and more.
This collaboration between Samsung and RTA is all about using your smartphone to make public transportation and everyday transactions in Dubai more straightforward. This makes life more convenient and efficient for both residents and visitors.
