Could be coming real soon along with LTE connectivity on-board the subway and the implementation of the new Azur subway trains
It would be great to be able to add the Presto card to Apple Wallet and pay with my phone instead of having to get the card out of my wallet every time. The phone is always somewhere I can get at it easily.
