Leap Top-Up App for iPhone

The official Leap Top-Up App for iPhone has landed!

iPhone users can now top-up and check the balance on their TFI Leap Card – directly from their NFC-enabled iPhone.

Open the app, start the scanner and simply hold a TFI Leap Card to the back, top of the iPhone to instantly check the card’s balance, collect a pre-paid ticket, or top it up – anytime, anywhere.

Click here to download from the App Store

 

Key Features:

* Check your balance – see the current balance of any TFI Leap Card

* Top-up instantly by using the dial to select a top-up value or tap to enter your desired amount

* Collect pre-paid tickets e.g. Bus Éireann TaxSaver tickets or tickets bought online from LeapCard.ie

* View your last 5 transactions

* Receive receipts via email for top-ups made via the app

* Save your payment details

* View your card information at a glance

* View ticket information for tickets on your TFI Leap Card

 

Note: The Leap Top-up app’s minimum requirement is an iPhone 7 running iOS 13.0. Due to the NFC chips used on iPhone 7 and 7 Plus some users may experience scanning issues or delays when scanning their TFI Leap Card. If the app fails to read the card it is recommended to adjust the position of the card.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtDIgHLsIAY

The Leap Top-Up app for IOS is only available for iPhones 7 and newer.

Users of some devices, in particular iPhone 7  and 7 Plus, may experience issues / inconsistent behaviour while using the app on their phone. This is a phone issue rather than an app issue and may be caused by a number of factors including the type and position of NFC chip.

You might want to try the following to help diagnose and resolve the problem:

  • Ensure that your TFI Leap Card is not damaged or cracked.
  • Ensure the back cover of the device is attached correctly.
  • Ensure that a cover or protective case is not obstructing the device from reading the card.
  • Turn off the device, turn the device back on & present a TFI Leap Card again
  • Try presenting another NFC-enabled card to the device (such as a contactless bank card) – does the device recognise that a card has been presented?
