Bus Fares and Bus Pass Fees

IndiGO has implemented a contactless payment system in partnership with Modeshift, offering enhanced flexibility for all riders.

With this innovative system, you will enjoy:

• Easy Tap Payments: Use your smart card or smartphone to pay fares for single rides, day passes, or monthly passes. Smart cards are free and can be picked up at our Main Office (1657 Saltsburg Avenue, Indiana, PA).
• Trip Planning and Payments: Plan and pay for your trips through a free mobile app or online.
• Convenient Ticket Management: Manage tickets and payments, or reload your smart card via an online portal or through the app. 
• Real-Time Updates: Access live information to make your journeys more efficient.
• Save Money with the New System!

Cash fares increased Jan. 1, 2025, but riders using the app, website or a credit card at the IndiGO Main Office continue to pay the lower fare rates.

Important Information

•    Bus drivers no longer sell day passes. Day passes will only be available for purchase through the app, the web portal, or our Main Office (1657 Saltsburg Avenue, Indiana, PA). You can buy day passes in advance—as many as you would like. Day passes do not have to be used the day you purchase them.

•    Monthly pass holders can save time and money by loading passes onto their smart cards via the app or web portal. While you can still purchase monthly passes at our Main Office (1657 Saltsburg Avenue, Indiana, PA), the new system offers a faster, more convenient option.

Learn more here. Set up your Mobile Pay account and purchase fares using the web portal. Download the app for iOS or Android.   

*Please note we do not give change for cash fares. 
**These passes are not available for purchase from the bus driver. You can buy them at our Main Office (1657 Saltsburg Avenue, Indiana, PA), or through the IndiGO Mobile Pay app download or web portal.
