The system is part of the [[London Underground ticketing#Fare zones|London fare zone]] system, and [[Travelcard]]s that cover the appropriate zones are valid. Tickets can be purchased from ticket machines at the entrances to platforms, and are required before accessing the platform. Passengers using [[Oyster card|Oyster]] pay-as-you-go<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.studentjetpacks.com/jetpacks_london_oystercard.asp|title=London jetpack: London Oyster travelcard|publisher=studentjetpacks.com|access-date=21 June 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120530020421/http://studentjetpacks.com/jetpacks_london_oystercard.asp|archive-date=30 May 2012}}</ref> and [[Transport for London#Contactless payments|contactless]] bank-cards need to touch both in and out of the system using card readers on automatic gates and platforms. There are no ticket barriers at DLR-only stations:<ref>{{Cite news |title=Tube errors may cost you dear |newspaper=The Times |date=5 January 2004 |location=London |first1=Ben |last1=Webster |first2=Andrew |last2=Clennell}}</ref> correct ticketing is enforced by random on-train inspections by Passenger Service Agents (PSAs). There are barriers at [[Bank–Monument station|Bank]], {{stl|London Underground|Canning Town}}, West Ham and {{stl|London Underground|Stratford}}, where the DLR platforms are within a [[London Underground]] or [[National Rail]] barrier line. There are also ticket barriers at [[Woolwich Arsenal station|Woolwich Arsenal]], which are the only barriers staffed by DLR staff; at this station passengers can pass between the DLR and [[Southeastern (train operating company)|Southeastern]] platforms within the paid area. Users of payment cards who have failed to touch in at the start of the journey, and other passengers without a correct ticket, may be liable to a £100 penalty fare or prosecution for fare evasion.
