| Pro Tip | Install it when using buses in Flanders. Contactless can pay for up to five people, but tap once per person within two minutes and use that same card or device throughout the journey. | For a few STIB rides, tap a separate contactless card or device per person. Use the app for groups, ten-trip fares or live disruption details. |
