Kyiv became the 5th city in the world after London, St. Petersburg, Chicago and Bucharest to launch contactless payments at turnstiles at the city metro network. Passengers of the Kyiv metro can pay fares using their MasterCard® contactless cards or devices while passing through the turnstile. Contactless payments are already available at the 17 stations at Kyiv metro (out of 52 in total), and the plan is to equip all Kiev Metro stations with contactless terminals by the end of this year. The 17 stations are Maidan Nezalezhnosti, Khreshchatyk, Palats Sportu, Ploshcha Lva Tolstoho, Teatralna and Zoloti Vorota.
