In due time you’ll be able to pay for your ride on BART and 23 other transportation options in the Bay Area using just your iPhone or Apple Watch. The company recently said that the Wallet app support for the Clipper card, the Bay Area’s all-in-one reloadable transit card, will be here soon. There’s no specific date for launch yet, but it has launched a sign-u page where you could register your email address to get notified when it’s available.
The moment you include Clipper to the Wallet app and enable Express Transit, you’ll be able to pay using your device without having to authenticate with your Face ID and Touch ID, or having to double-click the side button on the Apple Watch. You can also make use of Apple Pay in certain areas without Express Transit enabled, but you’ll are required to go through authentication every time.
Apple Pay’s Express Transit already functions with various transit cards around the world. It supports Japan’s Suica and Pasmo cards, as well as China’s T-Union cards, while in the US, supports NYC’s MTA card, Chicago’s Ventra, LA’s TAP card, Portland’s Hop Fastpass, and Washington, DC’s SmarTrip.
