London taxis set to accept contactless payments in 2016
London’s cabbies have moved one step closer to accepting credit cards and contactless payments inside their vehicles. It’s about time, right? After launching a consultation earlier this year, Transport for London (TfL) and London’s Mayor Boris Johnson have agreed to move the proposals forward with a planned introduction next autumn. There’s still one roadblock — the TfL Board has to approve the plans in February — but if they’re given the go-ahead, all taxi drivers will be required to accept these payments from October.
