Anytime. Anywhere.

Available in the iPhone App Store, Google Play and online, the EZfare App will change the way riders access public transit by integrating a digital wallet payment system.

All TARTA and TARPS riders can purchase daily, weekly or monthly passes online or through their smartphones.

Customers who wish to continue purchasing fares with cash will be able to do so. The EZfare app supplements all existing fare purchase locations and options.

The app is designed specifically for public transit users – meaning once a ticket is purchased, it is available even without an internet connection, so riders without data plans or limited data plans, are always able to travel.  

How The App Works

  2. Create an account.
  3. Select TARTA as the transit system.
  4. Purchase your ticket.
  5. Check out with a debit or credit card or various digital wallets.
  6. Activate the bus pass just before boarding.
  7. Show the active pass to the bus operator.

Upon purchasing bus fare via EZfare, passes are validated by showing an activated pass to the bus operator when boarding TARTA’s fix-line and paratransit service vehicles.
