Plan Your Trip

Helpful Tips

If you plan on using Token Transit for CARTA trips, here are a few things you’ll want to keep in mind:

  1. At this time, the Token Transit app must be downloaded to utilize the mobile pay services.
  2. Passes and tickets are not date specific and are non-directional. Trips are counted at the time of activation.
  3. Be sure to load your pass on your smartphone prior to the bus approaching and/or boarding CARTA.
  4. Wait until the bus approaches the stop before activating your pass. Do NOT activate until you are ready to board the bus.
  5. Digital passes expire 60 minutes after activation. The time allotted to use your pass includes your (1) free transfer. You must use your transfer within time allotted.
  6. A paper pass is still required when transferring to or from Tricounty Link.
  7. Anyone can purchase specialty passes including low income, student and Tel-A-Ride tickets. However, to use those specialty passes customers are still required to have predetermined eligibility and/or required to show a current ID to board the bus.
  8. Should you experience any technical issues with the app, please contact Token Transit, at help@tokentransit.com. CARTA customer service representatives can assist with all other questions via online chat at ridecarta.com or call 843-724-7420.
