Paying your fare

You can tap a PRESTO card, a credit or debit card, or your phone at TTC readers. A two-hour transfer lets you change routes.

Save money

  • Check if a monthly pass is cheaper for your trips.
  • Ask about discounted fares if you are a student, a senior or have a low income.

Beyond Toronto

GO Transit trains and buses connect Toronto with nearby cities. PRESTO works there too.
