BC Transit鈥檚 Umo (you-mo) electronic fare system is up and running in the 麻豆精选 Regional Transit System.
It offers contactless payment methods including the Umo Mobility app and a reloadable Umo card. The app is free in the Apple App and Google Play stores.
The app also provides riders with additional tools to help them plan their trip including real-time information and maps.
The Umo card is designed for repeated use and can be topped up through a vendor, online at ca.umopass.com,
or through the customer service call centre at 877-380-8181.
New and Improved Fare Products:
- Cash Balance, an alternative to cash, is a pre-paid dollar amount loaded to a Umo card or app;
- Digital transfer automatically applied to a Umo app or card at onboard validation. Riders then scan or tap their Umo payment method on their second bus within a 90-minute transfer window;
- Digital 10 Rides, replacing paper tickets, is available via Umo at the same discounted price;
- Digital DayPASS provides unlimited local travel at the new rate of $5 or two times the single ride fare.
- 30-Day Pass, replacing the existing Monthly Pass, can be activated on any day of the month.
The final date for monthly pass and paper ticket fare product sales is still to be confirmed but BC Transit plans to provide riders several months to transition to a new Umo payment
method.
