According to:

(translated by Google):
"The current public transport chip card may disappear in 2023. According to State Secretary Van Veldhoven, the technology is due for replacement. In a letter to carriers and other governments, she writes that the ease of use of the card is appreciated by travellers, but that a more contemporary system is preferable. In addition, the public transport chip card is relatively expensive, the state secretary emphasises.
Van Veldhoven wants to go to a system where the travel balance is no longer kept on an OV chip card, but where the traveller chooses whether he wants to pay via a bank card or mobile. The balance is then kept at a central point."
Anyone know more about this?
