FWIW Septa has had tap-to-pay working for about 2 years now (so, 2 years longer than what BART just rolled out like last week). But barely a decade ago they (septa) were still using physical tokens!

When I moved to the bay area, I thought it was so rad I could use the clipper card for vta + bart + caltrain + muni + ferry all in one.

I remember first moving to Philly and getting a SEPTA Key and thinking, "This is dumb, it's literally just a MasterCard. Why can't I use my credit card like NY?" Then a few years later they rolled out support for other bank cards and I immediately took my SEPTA Key out of my wallet.
