More info about carriers
Generally about new carrier
Once you have added a new carrier, that you want to use instead of the old one, be sure to transfer any of your valid public transport ticket coupled to the old carrier to the correct new carrier (in the My Tickets section). If you have received a new card from your bank and want to use it as a carrier, you must always register it again, even if it has the same number as the previous card. They differ in the validity date, and number + validity are used in the calculation of the secured card's "token" done by card readers.
Contactless sticker
You can use a contactless sticker instead of a regular credit card to register. However, the whole card number is not shown on the sticker. You need to look at the plastic label which you got with this sticker (there should be written full card number) or contact your bank for help.
NFC
You can also use the NFC chip on your mobile phone where you have your bank card added (virtualized). The NFC chip sends in reality a different number than your plastic bank card. More about this problem and how to handle it you can find here.
Anonymous bank card
If you do not have or do not want to use your contactless bank card, you can buy an anonymous bank card, which is available at all DPMB branches for 129 CZK.
Set an alias for your carrier
Use the blue button to set an alias for your carrier. It makes work with carriers clearer.
Deleting of old carriers
Use the red basket icon to delete your old carrier that you no longer use (so that you don’t add a product to it by mistake).
- Is it possible to use Apple Pay and Google Pay (etc.) as Brno iD carrier?
You can also use the NFC chip on your mobile phone where you have your bank card added (virtualized) as carrier of your public transport tickets or other products. The virtualized NFC bank card sends in reality a different card number than your plastic bank card. And Even after you reinstall your virtualized card or if you transfer it (from MyAir to GooglePay for example), your APK changes/renew virtualized card number. More about this problem and how to handle it you can find here.
- What should I do if the carrier (bank card) of my products has expired and I want to change my carrier?If your bank card expired and you got a new one from your bank, just register this new card as your new carrier in the section "My carriers". If you have some valid and active products, you need to transfer them to your new carrier (for public transport tickets in section "My tickets", for BRNOPAS in section "My BRNOPAS"). Please - do all of this also in case that your new bank card has exactly the same number as the old one! They differ in the validity date and so your new card has other identification TOKEN.
- What is and how to use sharing of customer accounts?
Account Sharing is used to allow someone to access your account, so he/she can take care of buying and paying tickets or other services offered at Brno iD. Information and other messages (for example about the upcoming ticket expiration) to the shared account are sent as a copy also at the email of the controlling account.
How to do it? After logging into your account, select the "shared accounts" section.
In the window that appears, enter the email of the customer to whom you want to grant access to your account and click on the button to offer sharing.
If the target account exists in the eshop, a message will appear in the green box. With the blue "trash" icon you can delete and cancel the request at any time. If the target account does not exists, a warning will be shown and you will need to check the target account's address.
Now you need to wait for the target user to accept your request. To accept sharing he should use a green "dart" icon or refuse sharing by using the blue "trash" icon.
After confirmation, sharing will be set up. Use the blue "arrow" icon to switch to a shared account at any time. Use the blue "trash" icon to stop sharing.
You can always go back from a shared account using the blue arrow on the top bar next to the listed name and email of the account you're in.
Account sharing is one-sided. This means that the user who offers sharing will only allow other users to access own account but cannot control the other account. If you want both-way account sharing, you need to create and accept sharing offers on both accounts.
- What is and how to use function of dependent (usually children) accounts? How do i buy public transport ticket "Child up to 3 years + 1 accompany"?
The system allows creation and management of dependent accounts. A typical example is that the parent sets up dependent accounts for their children (in the appropriate section of "My Account") and can then fully control these accounts. This means that you will be able to buy tickets and other products in these accounts and get an overview and information about them. As soon as the children grown up, it is possible to terminate the account's dependence via the Customer Service Center by setting own credentials for these accounts.
How do I create a dependent account? In your account select the "Dependent Accounts" tab:
Click the green "New dependent account" button:
Now a field will appear before you, which will allow you to set an alias for this account. Set an account alias and click on the green "create" button:
You now have a dependent account created. This account has a generated virtual email address, all information (confirmations, alerts, etc.) emails are automatically forwarded to the email address of the main account. Use the blue arrow icon to move to a dependent account.
If you created this account for the purpose of buying non-transferable public transport tickets, then you must fill in the needed personal data of the dependent person (name + surname + date of birth + address) and upload the photo. For children under 3 years of age, it is not necessary (but you can) to upload a photo (a pictogram will be added instead). Subsequently, it is necessary to have this personal data verified, either by requesting online verification (in the "My Account" section using the "Sned image(s) for online verification" button), or in person at DPMB sales points. The basis that you document or upload is (instead of the usual identity card) in this case the birth certificate of the child.
You can always go back from a dependent account to your own account. At the top bar next to the listed name and email of the dependent account is a small blue arrow icon that you need to use.
You can use the above steps to create multiple dependent accounts.
Buying of public transport ticket "Child up to 3 years + 1 accompany"
After the child's account is verified, it will automatically (if under 3 years of age) receive the discount category "child under 3 years of age" as part of the verification and the ticket can will be accessible. In the "Public transport" module, in the "Buy an IDS JMK ticket" section, select "Non-transferable tickets". First, you need to add a ticket carrier to your account (contactless payment card in physical or virtual form). Then you choose the category "Child under 3 years of age", you will see a choice of public transport card for zones 100 + 101 for 0 CZK (or a whole IDS JMK transport annual card for 2400 CZK). Select an expiration date. In the case of a ticket for CZK 0, you will see a "Create a free ticket" button. Using it, the ticket is created immediately, its "validity until" is automatically set up to 3 years of the child and the ticket can be used immediately.
- What should I do if I do not have a bank card?The system can handle these cases, and Brno public transport company provides at its branches the option to purchase anonymous contactless payment bank cards, or in case of children up to 15 years chip tag. All the passenger needs is an e-mail account to which his/her identification is bound. However, it is still necessary to pay for eshop products online through a credit card, electronic banking (bank button) or by most products also offline bank transfer is available (but in this case product start validity has to be at least 5 working days in future for this payment method to be accessible).
- What should I do if I do not have Internet access, and I want to use the new payment method?A customer service contact centre is established at the headquarters of the Brno City Transport Company on Novobranská Street, where our staff will help passengers in setting up and operating their online account.
- What do I need for participation in voting polls and special events Brno iD eshop?If not stated otherwise, you need to have a so called "full" account for participation in the events and voting polls. So you need to register you account at BrnoID.cz, then fill in your personal data in "My account" section, upload your photo there and then prove this data and let them be verified at any of the ticket sales points of DPMB, a.s. or on 13 premises of Jiří Mahen Library in Brno or you can use remote data verification. If you need advice on how to perform remote data verification, follow the instructions under "Where and how can you verify your personal information toget a full account or discount entitlements? And what is needed for it? ”.
- What is the bank payment button?It is actually a transfer from one bank account to another, but you pay through an instant payment gateway. First you click on the button of your bank (in the payment gateway), and it redirects you to your online banking. You then find the pre-filled bank transfer data after logging in, and you simply confirm the payment. The bank guarantees the security of this payment method, and nobody else will have access to your data.
- What should I do, if I don’t have internet banking and neither payment card with which could I pay online?In these cases our eshop provides the option of paying by so-called offline bank transfer, but only for the purchase of public transport tickets, BRNOPAS tourist card, ZOO experience programs and STAREZ-SPORT products. This method is only available on payments for public transport tickets with validity starting in 5 or more working days in future. If you choose this method of payment, the customer will get payment information, to which payment can be sent by a standard bank transfer (throught online banking, but also offline at the counter). However, processing of such a payment may take several working days and in the e-shop it first shows the status "waiting for payment", which will change only after receiving and processing the payment, when you will receive an email confirming the payment.
- Is the system safe?The system working with payment cards is secured with technology at the level of banking standards. Only the certified payment gateway has access to exploitable data (card number, validity and security code). When using bank card as carrier, the card number is encrypted by tokenisation gateway into an encoded number called a TOKEN, which can not be used for payment. The transport company works only with TOKENs and personal data for non-transferable tariff cards, and it records the data needed for a discount entitlement if need be.
