ZU Card

As a special promotion, BRT will be distributing the ZU Card card for free! When the new fare card is introduced, customers will pay only to load stored value on their card or add a pass. In the future, BRT may charge a small fee for the card.

Using your ZU Card on conventional buses

To pay your fare with the ZU card, hold your card level and square against the blue/green smart card target on the bottom right corner of the farebox. A single “ding” sound means your tap and payment was successful. A double tone means your tap was unsuccessful or your card doesn’t have a valid fare.

A 90-minute transfer is automatically loaded on your card when you pay your fare.If you transfer to another bus within 90 minutes, the farebox will read your transfer. The farebox will ding and the display will show “Transfer Adult.”
