GRT is now behind the ball on the advancements Presto has done; on many agencies including GO and the TTC, you can now tap with any contactless payment method; credit, debit, Apple Pay, etc. Much more flexible.
Those payment systems won't work without an Internet connection, either.
Rainrider's daughter wouldn't have had problems were the GRT buses equipped with Internet connections. Regardless of the payment system, this is really something that GRT will need to implement in the near future.
