Metro announced the launch of SmarTrip on Google Pay, providing more options and more convenience to Android customers wherever they go on the Metro system. The SmarTrip app for Android is now available on phones running Android 9 and newer versions. Users can create a new SmartTrip card in Google Pay on phones running Android 5 and newer versions. Training document are available on WMATA's website.
SmarTrip in Apple Wallet gives iPhone or Apple Watch users the "touch-free" experience, safer, faster, more convenient way to use SmarTrip anywhere it is accepted (launched September 2020). Riders do not need to touch card readers or vending machines, and with Express Transit, they can move quickly through stations and fare gates without the need to use Face ID, Touch ID, or wake their device.
Riders can now add a SmarTrip card to Android phones, iPhone, and Apple Watch by simply holding their device near the card reader to pay anywhere SmarTrip is accepted: all 91 Metrorail stations in DC, Maryland and Virginia; all Metro parking garages and lots; all Metrobus routes; and all regional bus providers, including ART, DASH, Fairfax Connector, Cue, Ride On, TheBus, Circulator, Loudoun County Transit, and OmniRide.
