What is OVpay?

OVpay is a collaborative initiative by all the major carriers in the Netherlands, including Arriva, Connexxion, EBS, GVB, HTM, Keolis, NS, Qbuzz, RET, and Transdev, working alongside Translink and Dutch banks. The app is an integral part of OVpay, offering an alternative to the traditional ‘OV-chipkaart’ by allowing you to check in and out using your debit card, credit card, or mobile phone.
