A transport card is a fairly convenient way to pay for travel on public transport in Novosibirsk. Therefore, the townspeople are increasingly asking the question of what actions need to be taken to issue this card?
The presence of a transport card, which is a tool for paying for public transport services in Novosibirsk, can significantly simplify the life of a person who regularly uses trolleybuses, trams, buses and the subway in this city. Indeed, when paying by card, there is no need to look for small money, wait for change or experience other inconveniences associated with paying for travel in cash. In addition, in Novosibirsk, when paying for travel with a transport card, the user is provided with a discount from the value of the tariff in the amount of 1 ruble.
Registration of a single transport card
Therefore, the townspeople quite actively use the opportunities provided by the transport card. In accordance with the terms of use of the card, its ordinary type, which is called a unified transport card, is not nominal. Therefore, firstly, when registering it, the recipient is not required to present documents, and secondly, he can transfer it for use to any other person, for example, a friend who has come to visit.
The process of issuing a card is quite simple: to do this, you need to apply with a corresponding request to one of the points that issue the card. These include ticket offices of the Novosibirsk metro and special yellow kiosks labeled "Unified Transport Card", which are usually located at bus stops. Please note that in the same places you can later recharge the card. In addition, you can deposit funds to the card using Kvartoplat payment terminals, Sberbank ATMs and other methods.
At these points, the card is issued almost instantly. Please note that when purchasing a card, you will be required to pay the cost of the carrier itself. There are two types of transport cards in use in Novosibirsk: the cost of those made of plastic is 70 rubles, and those made of cardboard are 25 rubles. In addition, at the time of issuing a card, users usually deposit a certain amount of money intended to pay for travel, since such a card is prepaid.
Registration of other types of transport cards
In addition to the single one, there are several other types of transport cards in Novosibirsk, for example, a student's card, a student's card, a social card and others. Their main difference from a single card is that such cards provide more significant benefits when paying for travel, and therefore are nominal. Accordingly, for their registration, you will have to provide documents confirming the right to the benefit. Such cards can be issued at the MUP Passengertransnab User Service Center located at Novosibirsk, Krasny Prospekt, 161. Some types of cards can also be obtained at ordinary points of purchase.
