How It Works

Using your GoPass ® Tap transit card will revolutionize the way you travel. When
GoPass ® Tap launches in 2018, it will be available for purchase in over 900 locations.

Tap to Board

Once you have your card, just touch your GoPass ® Tap card to the electronic reader every time you board or transfer on a bus or train. Your fare will be deducted automatically, so you’ll be ready to go.

Boarding Step - by - Step

Simply “tap” your card on the card reader found at rail stations and on buses.
The card reader will display a green checkmark and emit a beep that indicates you’ve successfully paid for the trip. The display will also show your card balance, and let you know if your account is running low.

Save with Every Ride

With GoPass ®, you’ll get the best fare every time you ride. Once your total monthly trips reach the total cost of a monthly pass, your remaining trips for that month will be free. Keep riding and keep saving without upfront cost or commitment.
