I swear the last time I was in Melbourne in 2019, the trams let me tap on and off with a credit card. But they don’t now in 2025. Am I imagining things, or did it go backwards?

    You’re imagining things. All previous versions of the Myki system have been incompatible with payment cards. (The next one apparently will accept credit/debit card payments, though.)

      Worth pointing out that they added the ability to pay a Myki fine on the spot from anywhere with a credit card over a decade ago. Priorities and all that.
