How To Use Your MyCiTi myConnect Card?
Your myconnect card is your ticket to ride. Once you load money onto it you simply tap in and out to pay your fare. There’s no time wasted trying to find cash or to get change – simply tap your card at the start and end of your journey – and enjoy seamless travel.
Tap in to start your journey:
Tap in by holding your myconnect card against the validator as you enter a station or board a bus.
Tap out to end your journey:
Tap out by holding your card against the validator as you leave the station.
Don’t pay a penalty:
Make sure you use a validator correctly. You will be charged a penalty if:
** You don’t have enough money for your trip.
** You forget to tap in and out.
** You tap the wrong validator.
