Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced the 'nol Travel' discount card initiative, offering users various benefits related to public transport, taxi fare payments, and parking fees in the Emirate. Additionally, users can enjoy 100 exclusive promotional offers, including discounts at hotels, restaurants, retail stores, entertainment venues, and adventure activities.

The announcement was made on Monday, 10th June 2024, at Skyview Hotel Dubai. The event introduced the new 'nol Travel' discount card to users in collaboration with MDX Solutions Middle East. The package will be available at multiple outlets such as Zoom, Al Ansari Exchange, Euro Car at the airport, and Rayna Tours offices.

Mohammed Yousef Al Mudharreb, CEO of the Corporate Technology Support Services Sector at RTA, stated that the 'nol Travel' card is an incentive package for various public transport users. This includes residents, tourists, and visitors to the UAE, especially Dubai. "The number of visitors in 2023 exceeded 20 million worldwide," he noted.

Al Mudharreb emphasized that RTA aims to delight the public through this initiative by offering products tailored to customer needs. "The 'nol Travel' card provides users with integrated public transport services and access to tourist facilities through a single card. The nol brand is a robust payment method in Dubai, with more than 5 million users and 3 million daily transactions," he commented.

He further explained that the new 'nol Travel' card complements the existing nol card's benefits. "These benefits include payment for public transport and taxi fares, parking fees, and purchases at retail outlets. Buyers of the 'nol Travel' card will receive a regular nol card, which is ideal for residents, visitors, and tourists. This card enables them to ride the Dubai metro, tram, public buses, and marine transport."
