Parents in the UAE can now easily manage their child’s nol card through the nol Pay app, allowing them to monitor and control their child’s transportation expenses. The new feature, which is integrated with UAE Pass, enables parents to link their child’s nol card to their own account, providing a convenient and secure way to manage their child’s travel.
The nol Pay app has been upgraded to include a range of new features, including the ability to tap and pay for transportation, top up cards, and check balances in real time. According to the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the updated app is designed to make it easier for users to manage their nol cards and access a range of transportation services.
Managing a Child’s nol Card
To link a child’s nol card to their parent’s account, users can follow a simple process. First, they need to download and open the nol Pay app, then log in using UAE Pass. From there, they can select ‘Family Card Management’ and enter their child’s nol tag ID or scan the card.
Once linked, parents can view their child’s balance, top up their card instantly, and renew it when it is nearing expiry. They can also monitor their child’s usage, providing an added layer of security and control.
nol Cards: More Than Just Transportation
nol cards are not just limited to transportation; they can also be used as payment cards at partner outlets. The nol ISIC card, in particular, offers a range of benefits, including a 50% discount on Metro, tram, and bus fares, as well as access to global student benefits.
With the ISIC integration, students can unlock exclusive discounts across 130+ countries, including special flight fares, retail offers, and lifestyle perks. This makes the nol ISIC card an attractive option for students who travel frequently.
Benefits for All Users
The updated nol Pay app is designed to benefit all categories of users, including students, senior citizens, and People of Determination. The app allows users to shop and pay at partner outlets, earn exclusive rewards through a loyalty account, and receive email or SMS alerts for low balances or renewals.
Additionally, the app provides a seamless integration with other government services, including KHDA, SANAD, GDRFA, and UAE Pass. This integration is expected to streamline the user experience and provide a more convenient way to access a range of services.
As the nol Pay app continues to evolve, users can expect to see further enhancements and new features. The RTA has not announced a specific timeline for future updates, but it is likely that the authority will continue to monitor user feedback and make improvements accordingly.
In the meantime, parents and users can take advantage of the new features and benefits offered by the nol Pay app. By providing a more convenient and secure way to manage nol cards, the app is expected to enhance the overall user experience and make it easier for people to get around the UAE.
