What is the Transit M-Card?
The Transit M-Card is a smart card and is a new part of our fare collection system. Once you purchase your first Transit M-Card for $5.00, you keep using the same card, week after week, month after month.
The Transit M-Card is the same size as a debit or credit card. When a customer boards a bus, they simply hold the card in front of the on-board reader to pay the fare. The reader recognizes what type of fare or pass is on the card and approves or denies the ride, electronically, in about a second.
To add additional bus fares to the card, you can:
- Visit the Customer Service Desk at City Hall Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.
- Visit transit.cornerbrook.com/login to register and add value to your Transit M-Card online using a credit card (Master Card or Visa). Once the transaction has been approved, the value will be added to your card electronically.
If you’re a cash-paying customer, everything stays the same for you. The farebox will still be on-board and the Transit M-Card reader will be added, so customers can pay with cash, or use a Transit M-Card.
