New Mobile Ticketing App Puts Purchasing Power into Smartphones

Launched as part of OC Bus 360°, a plan to improve bus service from all angles, the new OC Bus Mobile Ticketing App for fixed-route buses eliminates the hassle of carrying paper passes or exact change. OC Bus riders can buy fares any time, anywhere with their smartphones, then activate their tickets when ready to ride.

Easy to set up and use, the app can be used to purchase single rides, the newly discounted $4 day pass, 7-day and 30-day passes, college passes, and express route fares.

The app has been in development for several years. OC Fair Express and OC Bus express route riders used earlier versions and provided valuable feedback that contributed to improvements.

Since OCTA began promoting the availability of the refreshed version of the app two weeks ago, it has been downloaded nearly 1,000 times.
