Tap this way! Riders can pay directly at Metrorail fare gates and Metrobus fare boxes using their contactless-enabled bank cards or digital wallets.
Payment includes a fare-capping feature, which guarantees a maximum cost of $5.65 per day for unlimited rides on Metrorail.
The benefits of using a contactless payment method include:
- It's easy to use! There's no need to figure out what type of fare product to buy or register for an account. Simply tap and go.
- It saves time! There's no need to stand in line at a ticket vending machine to buy a ticket.
- It's flexible! Choose how you want to pay. Use your contactless-enabled bank card or your digital wallet.
- It's a great value! You'll receive the great benefit of fare-capping while maintaining the flexibility to pay as you ride.
EASY cards and tickets will continue to be accepted.
