You have 30 minutes to utilize your ticket. You DO NOT have to be online to activate your ticket.

USING YOUR TICKET

Scan the barcode on the EZfare validator when boarding the bus.

SCANNING YOUR TICKET

 

The barcode needs to face the

scanner. When the screen turns

green you can board the bus.  A red screen means there may be an issue with your ticket that needs addressed.

TAP & RIDE

EZfare is transforming how people pay for their journeys by delivering seamless and convenient rider experiences. Instead of needing to buy a ticket or select a fare before traveling, fare capping allows riders to travel across any EZfare agency by simply tapping their EZfar card or phone on the validator before boarding, removing the stress of purchasing tickets.
