Apple Pay does not work

Payment fails 100% of the time when using Apple Pay. Don’t bother with the app, just buy tickets on the day

Apple Pay failed

I downloaded the app because I wanted to use Apple Pay and not be forced to do phone verification. Well, the payment failed every single time no matter the card I chose. Bravo!

Can’t buy tickets

Impossible to buy anything

Literally Cannot buy ticket

You had one job

Ticket wallet needs work

Easy to use app, but tickets remain visible in the wallet years after they’ve been used. Would be better if they disappeared as soon as all trips were taken, to avoid confusion and clutter.

Why Payment postcode 5 digits?

You have to type 5 digits postcode, otherwise payment not came through.

Terrible

So many steps just to buy a ticket, and available payment methods are difficult — they don’t even offer Apple Pay!

Still an awful app

Where is Apple Pay? It’s 2026, should be able to add tickets to wallet. Can’t book a time slot for bus tickets I just purchased, how do I know that the bus won’t be full when it or I turn up?? Why have a timetable that doesn’t allow user to book seat for specific time. Given all the feedback going back 5 years, this company doesn’t have any interest in improving their product, only gave 1 star so feedback could be posted

No Apple Pay

Say whaaaat!? It’s an iPhone app. Don’t make me login to PayPal or get my wallet out. I’m tired.

Waste of my time

What a useless app. I don’t travel to Melbourne much but as they don’t have a rail connection (yes really; it’s 2025 and there is no rail connection from the airport the city!) I chose the bus service. I bought a ticket and got the confirmation and an invitation to download their app. Can I see my ticket when I register? Haha no. Waste of time.

Do not download this

This doesn’t work

Mr D

Can’t add purchases made on website. Not a hard thing to fix.

Don’t bother

Purchased tickets from Skybus website, but can’t add them to their own digital wallet! Don’t waste your time.

App doesn’t work

App doesn’t work. Bought a return ticket, but QR code vanished after the outward trip. No receipts provided for business travellers. Cannot save SkyBus tickets in Apple/Google wallet, can only view in the app. App is not fit for purpose.

Useless

Still no apple wallet integration in 2024. Then after digging my wallet out of my suitcase there was an error and my payment couldn’t be processed. Also the timetables don’t recognize the date to know it’s a public holiday. If you can’t rely on the timetables or purchase tickets, what is the actual point of the app?

Worst app out there

Tried to buy a ticket keeps saying cart invalid. How tf are we supposed to buy off your app if it doesnt let you? Wha cart? Whats invalid??? Just a one way city express to tullamarine. Frustrating. Ended up giving my money to Uber instead for same cost. Morons.

Ticket wallet has MAJOR ticket update issues

I have been caught trying to use a ticket in my wallet that was used weeks ago but still showing as valid, and also buying tickets in the app for them not to be there when I try to board. FIX IT!!!!

Won’t work

In the past I have used the app with no issues.
Now, I keep getting a pop up saying “no internet “
I have checked other apps and webpages and they all work fine.
It is very annoying.

Missing some key features

Apple Pay support
Apple wallet pass integration
Myki machine on board
Credit/debit card tap and go support on board

Half-finished App

This is the app you build when you have the market tied up and know your customers have few other choices. It’s not useless but you wouldn’t use it by choice.
