BUYING YOUR TICKET
To travel on these systems you need a Nol card or a Nol ticket. To buy or top-up a Nol card or ticket, just go to the ticket office or ticket machine within each station.
WHAT IS A NOL CARD?
A Nol (fare) card is an electronic payment card and there are 3 types available - Silver, Blue and Gold. We recommend the Silver card for frequent travellers, which can be loaded with up to Dhs 1000 credit. The Blue card is a personalised card with added security and online services, and the Gold card gives you privileged access to the Gold Class cabins. Nol cards can be used on all modes of public transport and even pay for parking and Dubai Taxis. Each time you travel, just tap the card on the validator and it will automatically deduct the correct fare. It's easy!
WHAT IS A NOL TICKET?
The Red Nol ticket is a paper-based system for occasional travellers. Tickets can be bought from any station vending machine and loaded with up to 10 single trips. Make sure you load it with the correct trip beforehand by checking which zones you'll pass through, or you could get penalised.
