Words you will meet along the way.

Official channel

A website, application or service point published by the provider itself. Verify the source instead of relying on a similar-sounding name.

nol card

The name of a card associated with transport services in Dubai. Read the issuer’s own description for current types and uses.

Recharge

Adding value to an existing card through a channel that supports it. Dubai Route Notes does not perform that operation.

Activation

A step associated with some methods of adding balance. The relevant reference is the current instruction for the method you used.

Transaction reference

A number or identifier that helps the provider locate a transaction record. Keep it with the receipt rather than posting it publicly.

Live routing

Information updated for the time and service conditions. The editorial writing here is not a replacement for it.
