Your TAP Card is how you pay for bus service. It works like a debit card (we call it stored value). You can also purchase single day or multi-day passes. When you board the bus, simply wave your TAP Card in front of the blue sensor. Purchase your TAP Card at the Transit & Visitor Information Center, or at a TAP retail location. Top up your TAP Card at these locations, online at taptogo.net, or by phone at 866.TAPTOGO. Discounted TAP Cards are available for Students, Seniors and customers with a disability. Load or Reload Your Tap Card 12 How to Ride Hailing the bus 1. Try to arrive at your bus stop 5 minutes before the scheduled arrival. 2. When you see your bus approaching, please stand as near as possible to the bus stop sign. You do not have to use gestures or hand signals to indicate to the bus operator. 3. Please do not run after a bus that is driving away from your stop. Signage on the top front of the bus shows important information: the route #, final destination, and major streets on the route.
