Ticketer and Google Wallet Express Pay

[Ediswan]

I have recently upgraded to a phone with NFC. I see that TfL support Google Wallet 'Express Pay', whereby the phone only needs to be awake (screen on) rather than needing to be unlocked. Does Ticketer support this feature ?

If the answer varies by operator, I would be using Arriva in Stevenage.

I did try searching the forum, but nothing stood out.

Yes, I've never had a problem on ticketer machines in just tapping phone on the reader.

Skip Device Unlock (to use its official - and obscure - term) also works with the screen off, just like Apple's Express Mode.

Ticketer machines are SDU-capable but it's up to individual operators whether or not to enable it; I believe Arriva Herts & Essex are among those that have.

Be aware that SDU functionality is also specific to the reader (even within an operator's fleet) and where buses have exit readers for Tap On Tap Off this variance can occur on the same bus!
