Ratings and Reviews
Really slow loading times!
Seriously I don’t get what’s up with presto I hate that it takes 24 hrs for your funds to load onto your card but it’s instant when you go to a shoppers drug mart or load it at a TTC presto machine.
I checked my balance and it was -$ so I had to load funds onto it through this app and when I got to my subway station it was declined didn’t REALIZE that it takes 24hrs for the funds to show up!? So I ended paying a cash fare, SO WHY does it load instantly if I load it at a shoppers or at a TTC presto machine?!?
Also this app is extremely slow at loading takes forever!!!
Seriously Presto is such a horrible transit payment system half the time the presto readers don’t even work and don’t even bother with loading funds through this app or on the website you’ll just have to wait for 24hours! The ONLY good thing I see so far with presto is the 2hr unlimited transfer limit but that’s it
UPDATE: THE PRESTO SITE ISNT EVEN WORKING!!! wow what a great system you guys have...app is garbage,the website is down...seriously we should’ve just kept it with metropasses. Presto is so flawed and has ALOT of problems
Developer Response ,
Hi An1ki, you asked and we listened. With the recent PRESTO App update, you can now instantly load your PRESTO card and check your card balance using your iPhone’s NFC capability (requires: iPhone 7 or higher, running iOS 13 or higher). To check your card balance, swipe past your last card on the app's home screen and select “Check Balance”. A quick tip to help you out; when you load or check balance, follow the on screen instructions to hold your card to the back of the phone until you hear the confirmation sound. ^RS
Add to wallet
Make the app have the ability to add the card into iphone wallet so we can tap the phone without the presto card. That would be cool!
Apple Wallet Support
The fact that it’s late 2019 and PRESTO still doesn’t support Apple Wallet is just infuriating. Last I checked, you guys have been planning this SINCE THE LAUNCH OF APPLE PAY. FOUR YEAS ALREADY.

Hi, Thank you for your feedback. This is not a current feature; we are pursuing options for customers to tap onto transit using their phones. Thanks, PRESTO App Team
