10 things you didn’t know you could do with your UAE Nol Card
From shopping for groceries to paying for fuel. If you live in Dubai, UAE chances are you have a Nol card tucked in your wallet. While this handy slip of plastic is most commonly used to pay for public transport rides, your Nol card now has a range of uses you may not know about.
Now, as we’re all being encouraged to pay with cards, rather than cash, there’s never been a better time to top up your Nol card and start tapping.
1. Shopping Groceries
Whether you’re doing your weekly supermarket shop or grabbing a quick snack from a convenience store, the list of Dubai merchants that accept Nol cards for payment continues to grow. Whip it out at selected Almaya, Carrefour, Lulu, AllDay and Zoom stores, among others.
2. Paying your Restaurant Bill
A number of Dubai restaurants are also accepting Nol card payments, including 800 Degrees Pizza, London Dairy and Burger King.
3. Seeing a Doctor
If there’s one place you want to keep your cash in your pocket, it’s the doctor’s clinic. At 17 Medcare branches around Dubai, you can pay for your consultation using a quick tap of your Nol card.
4. Buying Medicines at the Pharmacy
You can also tap and go when buying medicines and health products at Dubai pharmacies, including 146 branches of Aster, 23 MedComs and 11 Medicinas.
5. Paying for your RTA Taxi ride
Forget about fumbling around for coins in the backseat of the cab. When you use an RTA taxi, you can pay for your journey with a quick swipe of your Nol.
