Pay

Purchase Options

TARTA offers multiple ways to pay, including cash, the TARTA Card, or the EZFare app or EZFare website. Using the app or card enables "fare capping," so you never pay more than the daily pass price.

No cash refunds. If paying by cash, any remaining balance will be returned on a ticket that can only be used for future TARTA transportation

A friendly reminder: any attempt to ride without paying is a punishable crime.

Boarding
