Apple Pay comes to southern California's Metrolink app

Metrolink, Southern California's regional commuter rail service, has added an Apple Pay option to the Metrolink mobile ticketing app, according to a press release.

"Currently, more than 40 percent of our riders are using the Metrolink mobile app to buy their tickets, benefiting from convenience and time savings," Metrolink Chair Andrew Kotyuk said in the release. "As part of our focus on customer service, we are adding Apple Pay so riders have even more choices."

To use Apple Pay, customers log in to Metrolink's mobile app, select a ticket or pass, choose "Pay with Apple Pay" and complete the payment using the Touch ID or Face ID feature.

The Metrolink App is powered by Masabi's Justride Mobility Platform.

"We're very excited to offer Apple Pay as another payment option to Metrolink commuter rail riders," Masabi CEO Brian Zanghi said in the release. "Our primary goal at Masabi is increasing the convenience of public transit, and making payments as seamless as possible is one way we further that mission every day."
