If you want to travel with your smartphone, first remove any physical payment card or OV-chipkaart from the phone\u2019s protective case. This prevents you from accidentally checking in or out with the wrong card or device. Always remember to check out with the same card or device that you used to check in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-coming-soon-across-the-netherlands\">Coming soon across the Netherlands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It has already been possible for some time to travel by public transport with a debit or credit card in many other parts of the Netherlands, including most provinces and The Hague.
