What is a TAP Card?

A Transit Access Pass or "TAP" card is a reusable plastic card that can hold all of your transit fare products! Each card has a built-in electronic chip that acts like a mini-computer inside your card. You can load Stored Value (money) and/or a variety of passes that allow you to travel on Metro, Foothill Transit and 27 other transit agencies across the region! Much easier and faster than cash; just load the type of fare you need and tap it each time you board.
