Nol is currently undergoing yet another major update, this time switching to an account-based approach that makes use of central wallet technology. According to a senior source cited by Khaleej Times, the ambitious AED 350 million project is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2025 and will roll out gradually.

So What’s The New Amount?

Well, starting on Monday, January 15th, passengers using the bus or metro in Dubai will need to pay at least AED 20 to top off their Nol cards at the official ticket office. AED 5 is now the lowest cost for a top-up for a Nol card. This is when the previously mentioned twist enters the picture. The trick is to top off your Nol card online rather than at the ticket office at the Metro station. You can still top off your card for just AED 5.
