Reply to comment by MaleficentPiglet3 in Can you use the Septa key card for more than 1 person yet? by flyernut77

I just tried this and they wouldn’t scan

Wouldn't scan at all or wouldn't scan as fares for more than one person?

The QR code readers are much more finicky than I'd like to see. I really wish they had just focused on NFC and skipped this QR code nonsense. At any rate, I have used this system successfully, even though I don't think it was the best way to go.

You should report issues with mobile ticketing here.

I went through the mobile ticketing beta for 2 months and only had one issue with the reader and it wasn't working for the key either so it needed a full reboot.

Submitted a ticket and it was working the next day.

Yea two people using a card and we code and cops wouldn’t let us through even though we are clearly a couple and paid for both

The cops? Where were you trying to board? Any SEPTA station should have an attendant who knows how mobile ticketing works. Shouldn't be a police thing.

Nrg :)

Next time go to the station attendant.

But you're also confusing me by saying you had a card. You cannot use the physical cards to pay twice. You have to use the app. Not sure if some wires have been crossed here or if I'm just reading too much into a word choice.
