Yes, you can use your bank card to pay as you go for your travel from London to Cardiff using the train. Most train operators in the UK now accept contactless payments. However, unlike travel within London where you can use Oyster or contactless directly, traveling from London to Cardiff usually requires a standard ticket purchase, either in advance or at the station.
If you’re looking for the price, it can vary based on the time of day, how far in advance you book, and whether you’re traveling during peak or off-peak hours. Generally, standard fares for a one-way ticket from London to Cardiff can range from around £20 to £60 or more.
For the best deals, it’s worth checking the Trainline or National Rail websites for current prices and availability. If you’re using your bank card, be sure to check that the operator accepts contactless payments for the journey, as it might not be available for every service.
