Top-up online

To top up your card online, log in to your Swift account and select the card you'd like to add money to. Choose the amount you want to add, and checkout.

You have to activate the top-up by using either:

• the TfWM app
• an on-street Swift collector machine
• a Swift kiosk

TfWM (formerly Swift) app

If you have a smartphone you can activate the top-up on your card from home using the app.

For an Android device, get the app from the Google Play Store.

For an iPhone, get the app from the App Store.

When you’ve downloaded it:

1. Open the app
2. Select the Swift Collector
3. Hold your Swift card to the back of your phone
4. Follow the on-screen instructions

Swift collector machine

Most Swift collector machines are at bus shelters and bus stations. To activate the top-up on your card:

1. Hold your card to the reader or rest it in the metal slot
2. Follow the on-screen instructions

It can take up to 15 minutes for your payment to be available to activate on the machine. Make sure you’ve left enough time after you’ve made your online payment.
