| Jun 27, 2019 at 12:43 | comment | added | AndyT | To add to what @averell says - if you try to use the "same" card both as an actual card and as Apple Pay, the system thinks these are two different cards. So only use one card, and one way of using that card. | |
| Jun 27, 2019 at 9:04 | comment | added | Muzer | "Both options are subject to the same caps" probably true enough for the questioner, but not generally true - Oyster still lacks weekly caps that contactless has (that is, contactless is more beneficial as you'll save money if you are regularly hitting the daily cap over the period of a week, as there's a weekly cap that is less than seven daily caps) | |

there is actually a nice PDF table with the caps

| Jun 2, 2019 at 13:56 | comment | added | averell | This is a good answer. Note that you must always use the same card for all trips, otherwise the caps won't work. If you use a credit card (or Apple Pay), the system will typically make one transaction per day, not per trip. | |
