Smartphone Tips: If you travel by metro daily then maintaining the metro card becomes a hassle in itself. Many times the card is left at home and sometimes it gets lost and then standing in line at the ticket counter becomes a compulsion. But now you can get rid of this problem because you can use your smartphone as a metro card. For this, there is no need for any physical card nor for buying tickets again and again.
Digital travel made possible through QR ticket
Actually, QR code based ticketing system has now started at metro stations. With the help of this technology, a QR code can be created in the phone which can be used again and again. The special thing is that after generating this QR code once, it works as long as there is balance in it. This means the tension of getting a new ticket before every journey is over.
Virtual card is made from Delhi Metro Sarthi App
To make the phone a metro card, you have to use Delhi Metro Sarthi App which was earlier known as Momentum 2.0. This app is available for both Android and iPhone. After downloading the app, login is done through mobile number and OTP. After login, the option of virtual smart card is available in the app, where your digital metro card gets activated as soon as you recharge the minimum amount. After this, a QR code comes on the phone which you can scan at the gate to both enter and exit the metro.
Big benefits of virtual metro card
The biggest advantage of the virtual card present in the phone is that now you neither need to carry the card with you nor there is a fear of it getting damaged or lost. Even if you recharge more amount than before, there is no need to worry about balance getting stuck. Apart from this, unlike physical metro card, no security deposit has to be paid in it. The hassle of standing in line to recharge the card is also completely eliminated.
Travel will be easy and completely digital
If you want to make traveling in the metro even easier, then converting your phone into a metro card is a smart decision. Once setup, just take out your phone, scan the QR code and start your journey without any hassles. In the era of Digital India, this method is not only convenient but also saves both time and effort.
