The Pardubice card is a contactless memory chip card used as an electronic carrier of fare in the municipal public transport in Pardubice provided by the Public Transportation Company of the City of Pardubice. The Pardubice card has two functions – time fare and electronic purse for payments of individual fees. It replaces paper time tickets that are stored on the card.
In the future the Pardubice card could be used to make payments for varied services and events, e.g. parking fees, admission tickets to social, cultural and sporting events, etc. Payment of fares within the integrated transport system with other transport service providers participating within the region will be another advantage of the Pardubice card in the future. The card’s service life has been specified by the manufacture to be 5 years.
