Tap & Go train travel from Naples to Sorrento

Hello,

We will be taking the train from Roma Termini to Napoli Centrale, then from Napoli Piazza Garibaldi to Sorrento. According to the Man in Seat 61 website, when travelling from Napoli Pzza Garibaldi to Sorrento, instead of buying a ticket in advance, you can "use the ticket gate that allows you to touch in with a contactless bank card. Go through the automatic ticket gates onto the platform and hop on the next train."

Has anyone used this "Tap & go" system" with a North American Visa credit card?

If you have recently been there, can you please let me know what the one way fare costs? I have had varying results.

Grazie!

Have no answer for OP, but wondering what one would produce to show a conductor that one had paid the fare. Does the 'tap & go ' device dispense a ticket?
