What is a Journey?
What is a Journey?
A Journey is a completed trip for which your fare is charged (via Tappy Card, contactless payment, or one-time fare). There are two types of journeys.
"Simple Journey"
"Simple Journey"
— a one-tap trip, for example, boarding a bus.
"Complex Journey"
"Complex Journey"
— a multi-tap trip, for example, tapping into a station, then tapping out of a station.
What is a Transfer?
What is a Transfer?
A Transfer lets you begin a new journey at half fare if done within a specified time window, which is 90 minutes on the transport network, and 120 minutes on Commuter Rail.
For example, after finishing a Rapid Transit ride, you have a transfer window in which any subsequent trip, bus or Commuter Rail, would be half price.

Why does it cost more?
Why does it cost more?
Our Rapid Transit and Commuter Rail systems require more infrastructure, maintenance, and operational cost than buses. The combined base + per-station fare helps balance affordability with system viability.
If you ride rail exclusively, consider our Tappy Card for Rail only. Frequent riders may benefit most from the Yearly Pass.
AddFare Discount
AddFare Discount
The AddFare Discount applies to journeys that begin on rail-based services that exceed the $5.00 threshold. If your trip costs $5.00 or more, your fare will be halved once you tap out.
What if I continue my journey?
What if I continue my journey?
The AddFare Discount is granted only once in each transfer window. If you reach your threshold a second time or more, the Discount will not be granted until your current transfer window expires.
Does this apply to other transport modes?
Does this apply to other transport modes?
No, at this time, AddFare is meant to make rail-based services more affordable.
