There is always a way to bypass the current buy-options any service offers. We can make a service that can top-up OV cards or a place to buy 'anonymous' cards topped off in certain amounts. Only problem with topping up cards hooked to people's names and bank accounts = privacy concern because you would need to know some touchy information to be able to do that, which comes with a few laws to reckon with. BUT it is a good idea and worth looking into.
EDIT: I just checked it and it is possible to top up cards hooked to people's names. Apparently all you need is the unique card number to send money to a card to top it up.

some people don't really mind too much about privacy concerns, giving the people the possibility/opportunity is key
(and makes the most sense, business wise)I proposed this when bitcoin was just a few months old, but people thought it was a stupid idea. I have multiple anonymous OV-chipcards in my wallet (and use cash to charge them). Would be great if you could send empty ones to some place and order there a new one (which is pre-charged). Even the intrinsic value of the card (the 7,50 euro's that you use to buy them) could be refunded, based on the remaining age of the card (expiration date is on the back). And by using the card all over the country, it will be very hard for TLS to trace the card to a person.
I know when I was living in australia they offered business that sold top up credits for (transport) smart cards a % cut of the value topped up, if they offer it over there could start up a website doing top ups, offer half of discount to customers as discount for using NLG and the other half for costs to run the site. also could work for top up credits for prepay phone vouchers, this way you offering a discount by not costing you anything
You can't give people discounts. Topping up €20 the card, actually costs €20. Discounts will put you out of business real fast.
The OV-chipcard is a state-approved private monopoly. What you pay, is what you get (well, actually you get less, but nobody complains about that).

I have the new 1.3.1 wallet, but it says assertion failed, pfork=NULL!! Can someone explain this? It worked yesterday!
1) Try this: https://guldencoin.com/articles/fix-synchronisation-issues
By reloading the blockchain all should be well again. (found this on google peercoin with same failure)
2) I found this about that error. It seems that maybe your firewall has caused this error.

(and makes the most sense, business wise) Sweet az, was just thinking out loud 
The concept is great, it should just be something else than tickets..
Maybe add credits on the OV chipcard with Guldencoin..?
that's an awesome idea!!!

is there plans for including the iOS wallet in international mac app stores at a later date? would be easier for visitors to come loaded with NLG then to carry cash, already done the conversions before they left home, so they know how much they have to spend
also what about the public transport providers, like trams and trains, buy tix with NLG (especially if able to get a discount) would bring it more mainstream, lots of people use public transport and you could probably do a media campaign around it or at the stations

OV is moving away from tickets and towards OV-chipkaart. I don't think they will add a new payment method for a service they're shutting down.
Is there a reason why the iOS app is only available in the Netherland's app store?
May be they want to launch there first.
As far as I understood from Rijk legal issues / policy from Apple prevent release in other countries.
