Snapper finally makes it to Wellington

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Snapper cards will be accepted on Wellington’s trains from October this year, ending more than a century of paper tickets.
The Snapper pilot will begin in October on the Johnsonville Rail Line, subject to the final completion of commercial negotiations.
Since its launch in 2008, Snapper cards have been used for the overwhelming majority of bus trips in the capital.
Wellington was originally meant to add card payments to trains back in 2015, under a Waka Kotahi plan to expand Auckland’s AT HOP card to the capital.
