Token Transit App

Buy Passes using the Token Transit App

Single-ride and monthly passes may be purchased and used with the Token Transit app on your phone. The prices in the app are the same as the prices listed above for cash fares and passes.

Token Transit also provides the option to buy a 20-Ride Pack of General single-ride passes for the discounted price of $31.50. Note: the discounted 20-Ride Pack passes are not eligible for fare-capping.

Ride the Bus using the Token Transit App

This 2-minute video explains How to Pay and Ride with Token Transit. Note that Capital Transit is not using barcode scanners at this time. Please activate your pass with Token Transit before boarding the bus, and show the screen with the pulsing circle to the driver as you board. An internet connection (either mobile data or wi-fi) is required to activate the pass on your phone. Single-ride passes only remain active and available for boarding for 30 minutes after first activation. For other issues or questions about using the app, please see the Token Transit support page.

Save Money with Fare-Capping by using the Token Transit App

The Token Transit app includes fare-capping, which is a way to save money on transit. It makes sure you never pay more than the cost of a monthly pass. Once your single-ride pass activations within a single month reach the cost of a monthly pass, you are automatically upgraded to a monthly pass for free for the rest of that month.

How Does Fare Capping Work?

1. Keep riding as usual: Buy and activate single-ride passes like you normally would using the Token Transit app. Cash fares, gifts, and other discounted fare types like the 20-Ride pack, do not apply towards fare-capping. To be eligible for fare-capping, please select the single-ride passes in the Token Transit app.
2. Let the system work: If your total spending during the month reaches the cost of a monthly pass, the system will upgrade you to a monthly pass automatically.
3. One pass at a time: Make sure your current pass has expired before activating another one—only one active pass at a time counts toward fare capping.

How Will I Know I Got a Fare-Capping Upgrade?

You’ll get a text message or email from Token Transit saying your pass was upgraded. It will explain:

• The new pass you’ve been upgraded to.
• How much you’ve spent so far.

Once upgraded, you can ride for free until the upgraded pass expires!
