- Customers can select the ‘NCMC Recharge’ option within any Bharat Connect-enabled app, choose Airtel Payments Bank, and enter their mobile number and the last four digits of their card.
- The platform will show the current balance along with the minimum and maximum recharge limits.
- Recharge amounts of up to ₹2,000 are supported.
- Post-recharge, users can update their card balance by tapping it on a designated terminal.
- The card is valid across metro networks like Mumbai Metro One (MMOPL), Delhi Metro (DMRC), NCRTC, Gujarat Metro, and also with state bus operators.
By linking the card to a mobile number instead of full card details, the solution enhances security and regulatory compliance.
