What means of payment are accepted by the exit service at Orly (type of credit card, fees, watch, express mode, etc.)?

Updated on Jul 02 2026

The contactless payment exit service at Orly Airport metro station accepts all contactless banking devices from the Visa©, Mastercard© and CB© networks, in physical (card) or dematerialized format (phones and connected watches equipped with NFC technology such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay).

Other banking vehicles are not compatible with the Service (examples: Swile, Paylib©, Amex - American Express©, Diners©, JCB©, Bancontact©, Union Pay©, Ali Pay©).
The use of a payment method with the contactless payment exit service is independent of your Navigo pass and will therefore be charged.

Are there any additional fees for foreign cards?

The service does not incur any additional charges when you use a foreign bank card. However, your bank may apply a conversion fee if you make a payment in a currency other than the euro (€).

How do I know which card is used at checkout?

It is recommended to present only one bank card in front of the validator during validation, in order to avoid any confusion during reading.

If you are using a digital wallet (wallet / card app) the validator will then use the card you have set as the default payment card in your digital wallet (wallet / card app) during validation.

You can also track your use of this service by visiting the service's customer portal.

What is the purpose of Express mode on my Apple smartphone?

When you register your credit card in your wallet / card app, the app activates the "Express Transport" mode by default. It allows you to automatically validate (without going through a face ID or touch ID), the bank transaction when you present your Iphone on the exit service validators by contactless payment at Orly Airport station. If you don't want this feature to be enabled, do so.

 How do I turn Express Mode on or off?

On your iPhone:

1. Go to Settings

2. Cards and Apple Pay

3. Express Transit Card

4. If you want to use Express Transit mode, select the card of your choice

5. If you no longer want to use Express Transit mode, select "None" or "No".
