Mastercard is bringing back its ‘free travel in London’ offer in an attempt to encourage the use of Apple Pay.
The offers runs for three separate days – tomorrow, 7th March and 14th March.
If you have a suitable Apple device to use Apple Pay, you can do quite nicely out of this if you are not working and decide to go on a little day trip as the Oyster system now covers much of Greater London and into the South East. The maximum reimbursement is £28.10 per day.
Here is the small print:
To redeem the offer, cardholders must use their MasterCard card with Apple Pay to travel on London Buses, London Underground, London Trams, Docklands Light Railway, London Overground, TfL Rail, Emirates Air Line, and most National Rail services in London (where a yellow card reader is present) during the Promotional Period.
The offer entitles cardholders to receive a refund against their travel costs made with a Mastercard card with Apple Pay on London Buses, London Underground, London Trams, Docklands Light Railway, London Overground, TfL Rail, Emirates Air Line, and most National Rail services in London (where a yellow card reader is present) to a maximum value of £28.10 per cardholder, per Promotional Period. The offer is as stated and nothing else is included.
Offer excludes travel on Thames Clipper River Bus services.
To qualify for the offer you must touch your Apple Pay device on a yellow card reader at the start and end of each journey made by London Underground, Docklands Light Railway, London Overground, TfL Rail, Emirates Air Line, and most National Rail services (where a yellow card reader is present) in London (or any combination of these) and at intermediate points where required. On London Buses and London Trams you must only touch in at the start of your journey.
Full details can be found on the Mastercard website here. Remember that you need to have a Mastercard set as your primary payment method.
