SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Fitbit
      (NYSE: FIT) today announced Fitbit
      Pay™ is available for consumers to use at seven major transit
      systems around the world, enabling Fitbit users to travel with ease.
      Fitbit also announced it will be part of the Metropolitan Transportation
      Authority’s (MTA) One
      Metro New York (OMNY) contactless fare payment pilot program. Any
      user in New York with Fitbit
      Charge 3 Special Edition™, Fitbit
      Versa Special Edition™ and Fitbit
      Ionic™ devices will be able to securely and easily tap and
      pay-per-ride directly from their wrist on select MTA busses and subway
      lines, providing the convenience to keep their smartphones and wallets
      tucked away.
    
      Starting May 31, Fitbit users with Fitbit Pay-enabled smartwatches and
      trackers can tap and pay to board all Staten Island buses, and all stops
      on the 4, 5 and 6 subway lines between Grand Central and Atlantic
      Avenue-Barclays Center. This pilot program marks the beginning of a
      long-term relationship with the MTA, with plans
      to extend the organization’s OMNY program to the entire subway and bus
      system by 2021.
    
      “We’re excited to work with Fitbit and others to help us provide added
      value and everyday convenience to our customers,” said Al Putre, OMNY
      Executive Director at the MTA. “We are always looking for ways to
      enhance the transit experience and help New Yorkers and visitors alike
      get to their destination faster and make payment more convenient, and
      now they can do so with any Fitbit wearable that supports Fitbit Pay
      with a simple tap of the wrist.”
    
      In addition to bringing Fitbit Pay to one of the largest and busiest
      public transit systems in the world with the MTA, Fitbit continues to
      expand its global transit system capabilities to serve commuters and
      travelers from all over. Fitbit Pay can now be used across seven open
      and closed loop transit systems, including Chicago Transit Authority
      (CTA), Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA), Sydney transport for
      New South Wales (NSW) train, ferry and light rail services, Taiwan
      iPASS, TransLink in Vancouver and Transport for London (TfL), with plans
      to bring Fitbit Pay to more global transit systems in the future.
    
      “In addition to helping our users get healthier and more active, we’re
      committed to delivering holistic experiences on our trackers and
      smartwatches that help keep our 27 million active users engaged,” said
      James Park, CEO and co-founder of Fitbit. “As we expand the use of
      Fitbit Pay to work with the MTA and other major transit systems around
      the globe, we are enabling our on-the-go customers to safely and easily
      pay for transit with devices that are broadly compatible and have long
      battery life – all making it easier to go about their day.”
    
      In less than two years, Fitbit Pay is now available
      in 42 countries and supported by more than 300 of the world’s
      leading banks and credit unions through American Express,1
      Mastercard and Visa networks. Through a few quick and easy steps, Fitbit
      users can add up to six credit or debit cards to their Fitbit Wallet in
      the Fitbit app on Android or iOS mobile devices. Using the NFC chip
      built-into select Fitbit smartwatches and trackers, Fitbit Pay users can
      easily pay for items at millions of stores worldwide wherever
      contactless payments are accepted.
    
      All Fitbit Pay transactions use an industry standard tokenization
      platform, ensuring users’ card information is never revealed or shared
      with merchants or Fitbit. For added security, a protected PIN is chosen
      by the user during device set-up. Users are also covered by their bank’s
      fraud protection and continue to enjoy the advantages conferred by their
      bank or credit card, including guarantees, insurance coverage, points
      and miles, without having to take out their wallets. For more
