In Samara, the launch of payment for travel by geoposition

Passengers of public transport in Samara have another way to buy a ticket. Now it is not necessary to look for a bank card or cash to pay for a trip - a smartphone with 2GIS installed and Internet access is enough.

The new feature works in buses, trams and trolleybuses. To use it, you need to open the 2GIS section "Travel" and select "Pay travel". The application will determine where the passenger is, and then show the appropriate routes and current rates.

Payment is made from a bank card previously tied to the application. After completion of the operation, the electronic ticket will appear in 2GIS. When checking it can be presented to the controller directly from the smartphone.

The service works in transport, which is serviced by MP Tram and Trolleybus Management, Samara Auto Gas LLC and Irbis LLC.

A phone is now enough to travel. Separately get a bank card or prepare cash is not required.

Payment by geolocation is not a new technology for Russia. For the first time this method appeared in 2025 in Kostroma. Since then, it has spread to more than twenty cities in the country, including Vladivostok, Yaroslavl and St. Petersburg.

Now Samara has joined them. At the same time, the principle of operation remains simple: the application determines the location of the passenger, helps to choose the desired route and arranges an electronic ticket.
