That may be true in some parts, but not everywhere.
Nottingham, for instance, has had contactless cards for transport for years.
There's an array of confusing different options (some cards will work only on City buses, some will work on any bus but not the tram, some will charge extra when you use the tram, but others won't, their ranges cover different parts of Nottingham etc).
But once you've got your head around that, it works fine.
