The service is available to owners of gadgets based on the Android operating system. And owners of smartphones based on iOS can top up Troika using Apple Pay, but they will have to activate the payment through a validator at metro stations.

Through the Moscow Metro application, passengers can now top up their card entirely online. They will not have to additionally touch their card to yellow validators in the metro. The function has become available for users of Android smartphones with NFC support. A list of gadget models with this feature is published on the application page on Google Play.

“After passengers deposit money into their Troika account, they will only need to tap the card on their mobile phone, and the account will be topped up via an NFC connection. Thanks to this, you can top up your account, for example, on the way to work, which will save travel time,” said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow, head of .

He noted that now the Moscow Metro application can be used to activate deferred payment without applying the Troika to the yellow validators at subway stations. Even if the passenger tops up the card using any other method, including Yandex.Money, Qiwi and Webmoney, he will be able to use the Moscow Metro application and activate the payment using an NFC connection.

In the updated version of the Moscow Metro application, owners of gadgets running the iOS operating system now have the opportunity to top up Troika using the Apple Pay payment system. But in order to activate payment, the card must be applied to the yellow validator at subway stations.

The updated version of the application can already be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play.

“We are constantly expanding the possibilities of paying for travel and adding the most innovative methods. For example, together with Apple we launched a new way to top up Troika through our Moscow Metro application using Apple Pay,” noted Maxim Liksutov.

When selecting Apple Pay from the app menu, the user will need to confirm the payment method using Touch ID or a password. Unlike paying with a bank card, the passenger will not have to enter additional information: card number, owner details and security code. This will allow residents and guests of the city who top up their Troika account online to save time.

Apple Pay is secure because the card number itself is not stored on the device or on Apple servers. Instead, the smartphone or watch account is assigned a unique number, which is encrypted and stored in the device's Secure Element chip. Each transaction is authorized through a unique one-time secret code.

Fan's Guide

The new release of the Moscow Metro application also includes a section for Confederations Cup fans.

“For the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup, we have added a special section for fans in Russian, English, Spanish and German. It contains all the useful information for guests coming to the Cup games. This is the schedule of matches, a description of the participating teams, the rules for free travel on Moscow transport and other information,” said Maxim Liksutov.

The metro will become one of the main modes of transport for fans who will come to the Confederations Cup matches. The tournament will take place from June 17 to July 2 in four cities of Russia. For the convenience of tourists, the names of stations on all metro lines are duplicated in English. Ticket offices with English-speaking employees at stations popular among foreign guests were marked with special stickers. In addition, software with duplication of basic functions was loaded into metro terminals for purchasing tickets.

The Moscow Metro mobile application appeared in the App Store and Google Play this year. It has already been downloaded by more than 375 thousand users.

Through this application, passengers can build combined routes throughout the city using all types of transport - buses, trolleybuses, trams, metro and MCC, electric trains and Aeroexpress trains.

4. Recording subscriptions is similar to paper tickets, so the specifics of their use are similar.

Top up your Troika card via online banking

You cannot pay for trips on the Moscow metro with a bank card.

Editorial

The metro promised that such an opportunity would appear this year. But for now, passengers continue to waste time: looking for an ATM to withdraw cash, or standing in line to buy a ticket.

It is not necessary to wait until cash registers are equipped with bank card receivers. You can get a Troika, top it up via online banking and always get on the metro without delays.

Let's start Troika

First, we buy the Troika itself.

Troika is a plastic transport card. With its help, passengers pay for trips on the metro and ground transport.

Troika is beneficial for those who use public transport occasionally. For example, several times a week or month.

For those who travel more than five times a week, it is more profitable to buy “Unified” for 60 trips.

The benefit is that you can throw in 2,500 rubles (enough for 83 trips) once and forget about the routine for at least a couple of months. The money on the card will not expire for the next five years.

The card is sold at ticket offices and metro terminals and costs 80 rubles.

50 rubles (deposit) + 30 rubles (usually cashiers ask you to pay for one trip). The deposit can be returned if the card is no longer needed.

Usually the card is topped up with cash - at the cashier or at the terminal. But few people know that this can be done online.

Top up your card via online banking

We go to the “Payments and Transfers” section of the Internet Bank to top up the card:

Activating trips

“Troika” will have to be additionally activated: turn the credited money into trips. The card has not yet learned how to do this automatically.

To do this, you need to go down to the metro and find any metro information terminal. It's not difficult: the terminals are located in the lobby of every metro station and are painted yellow. There is never a queue for them, because few people know why they are needed.

Once the operation is completed, the terminal will show the credited amount and the balance on the card.

When you spend all the trips, the procedure will have to be repeated, along with activation. But you can forget about queues and ATMs.

In 2015, the possibilities for remote replenishment of the Troika card were significantly expanded. You can deposit money on the travel card using payment terminals, SMS, Internet banking and on the official website of the card. The latest innovation was introduced the day before - now balance using the Sberbank Online service..

Briefly about Troika

The Troika transport card combines an electronic wallet and the ability to record all types of tickets for the metro, monorail, bus, trolleybus and tram. You can also pay with the card for trips on commuter trains and Aeroexpress trains.

One trip using the “Electronic Wallet” tariff on the metro costs 30 rubles, on land transport – 29 rubles. According to the “90 minutes” tariff, one trip on ground transport and the metro will cost 46 rubles.

When you record "United" tickets on a card, trips will be debited from it - just like from cardboard tickets.

How to top up your balance using SMS

You can deposit money into the “Electronic wallet” of the Troika card using SMS. To do this, you need to send a message to number 3210 with the text: troika<номер карты><сумма пополнения>.

The card number can be found on the back of the card; it and the payment amount must be entered separated by a space and without quotes. In a few seconds, in response to the request, a message will be sent to the sender’s phone asking you to confirm the debiting of funds.

After this, you will need to activate the deposited funds using the yellow information terminals installed at each metro station. To do this, you need to select the “Remote replenishment” button on the screen, bring the Troika card to the yellow scanner circle and wait for the payment to be recorded.

The service is available to subscribers of three major Russian operators. The minimum replenishment amount is 10 rubles, the maximum amount is 2500 rubles.

You can top up the e-wallet of the Troika transport card at the metro ticket office.

To top up your account, you need to select “Payments” in the ATM menu, then “Other”, and in the window that opens select “Troika Card”. Then you need to enter the transport card number and the required amount.

You can also top up Troika using the terminals of project partners at Velobike city bike rental stations. You can deposit funds on the Troika.mos.ru portal or using Yandex.Money.

Payment for trips via online banking

Several major banks also allow you to top up your city pass using their online banking. You can deposit money into an electronic wallet using the Internet services of VTB24, Rosbank, Moscow Credit Bank and Sberbank.

For all banks, the replenishment procedure is approximately the same:

• select the option “replenishment of the Troika card”;
• indicate the replenishment amount;
• confirm payment;

The maximum replenishment amount is 2500 rubles. The money on the card will be stored for five years.

How to top up your card at ATMs and terminals

You can deposit funds onto the Troika transport card at payment terminals of the Moscow Credit Bank and Rosbank ATMs. In addition, card balance replenishment is available in Qiwi terminals.

The replenishment procedure itself is similar to those used when making payments using online banks. The deposited funds will also need to be activated in the metro terminals.

In all cases, no replenishment fee is charged.

Transferring money to an electronic travel card from electronic wallets

You can top up your city travel card balance using the online service on the official website of the Troika card. You can use bank cards and mobile accounts, as well as electronic money Qiwi-wallet, Yandex.Money and WebMoney for payment.

The replenishment procedure is simple:
