This Fall try Tap & Ride – an on-board contactless fare payment pilot! Customers can use their Visa or Mastercard credit/debit card or mobile wallet to tap a contactless payment reader at the front of the bus and pay their bus fare quickly, easily and securely. With Tap & Ride’s fare capping feature, customers will never pay more than $3.50 in a 24-hour period, or $52.50 in a 31-day period.
