Display your ticket to the bus driver and tap the ticket screen to validate using Lights On feature. • Watch your battery level... Just like with paper tickets, you're responsible for making sure you have a valid fare at all times. • We suggest you create an account before purchasing tickets, as this is the only way you can transfer your unused tickets if you get a new phone.
