App Change

I should be able to transfer my (paid) rides from the old Qticketing App.

It’s only two rides but it’d be great if you could compensate me

FAQ

What kind of tickets can I buy with the Q Ticketing app?

The app allows you to purchase single ride tickets for local bus and rail, METRO day passes for local bus and rail, and Park & Ride tickets (full fare only). You can make these purchases using a credit card, PayPal, or Apple Pay.

Do I need an internet connection to use my tickets?

Ticket purchases require a cellular network or wireless connection. However, once purchased, you can activate and use your tickets offline. This means you don't need an internet connection to display your activated ticket to a bus operator or fare inspector.

How long are the tickets valid for?

Individual bus or rail tickets purchased through the app can be saved and used for up to 2 years from the original purchase date. This provides flexibility for users who may not need to use their tickets immediately.

Can I buy tickets for multiple people?

Yes, you can purchase and activate multiple tickets for multiple passengers at the same time. The app allows you to purchase up to 30 tickets at once and a maximum of $50 in tickets per day.

How do I plan my trip using this app?

While this app focuses on ticketing, it contains a link to the METRO TRIP app. The METRO TRIP app provides routes, schedules, and real-time arrival information, allowing you to quickly and easily plan your public transportation journey.
