Seems about right

The Irish Rail number includes a large number of annual tickets. The Irish Rail card is available from a TVM, Luas one must be bought online.

Looking forward to collecting an ITS card later this week....

It's not surprising really, they're not that useful for the vast majority of Luas passengers.

RPA have confirmed the name/branding to us

Not all info in article is 100% accurate but close enough.

RUI will be testing the "travel credit application" aka the pay as you go ticket when it enters its first testing phase this Summer

Any word on the final fare structure. Or even how it is going to work for the test?
