XT-CARD · MOBILE TICKETING
Pay As You Go brings simple, flexible ticketing to public transport. Start your journey. Enjoy the ride. Pay for the journeys you make.
01 / THE CONCEPT
Passengers can use the transport network without buying a ticket in advance or learning the tariff.

Check in through the mobile app before travelling.
The app collects journey data while you move.
Check out. The system calculates and processes your fare.
02 / A NEW STANDARD
No worries about ticket duration or zone validity. The system applies the tariff and caps the day’s total at the relevant day-ticket price.
Pay-as-you-go ticketing is gaining adoption across European cities and wider transport networks.
PID Lítačka already offers daily capping for eligible, sequential 30- or 90-minute Prague tickets (P+0+B) on the same device. Only the amount needed to reach CZK 140 is paid; the resulting ticket lasts until 01:30 the following day. Ticket validity must not overlap by more than five minutes. This animation explains the PAYG principle; it is not the PID Lítačka app.
Adult mobile fares: 30 min · CZK 36; 90 min · CZK 46; 24 h · CZK 140; 72 h · CZK 340. Checked 4 Nov 2026.
