The TuLlave card is an element that allows those who are in Bogotá to access the zonal, trunk and cable component of the Transmilenio system. There are several types of card, but the most basic, which can be easily purchased at stations, does not have the user’s personal data and, therefore, is not applicable for transfers, travel on credit or blocking balance due to loss or heist.
However, one aspect that many are unaware of is that even this can be recharged through the internet and, specifically, through the Nequi virtual wallet. Here we show you how to do it.
