A ride on Sarnia Transit is now only a swipe away.

A new payment system allows passengers to pay fares with a contactless smart card.

Card users can pre-purchase tickets, monthly passes, and semester passes. The system includes a reloadable card with automatic transfers, which city staff says improves the overall passenger experience.

Bus riders can load the card at designated point-of-sale locations or online.

Cards can also be set to auto-renew. Lost or stolen cards can be blocked and balances transferred over to a new card, the city said.
