Go Ventura SmartCard

Flexibility, convenience and value have never been more accessible! Smart Ventura County citizens have long enjoyed the benefits of an affordable "chauffeured" ride using Ventura County bus system. Without the cares of rising fuel costs, driving through gridlock or worrying about parking, they know each day will begin and end hassle-free.

Make smooth transfers from one bus to another and from one system to another throughout the region with the Go Ventura card. You'll no longer need to hassle with exact change or stickers. And although tokens and exact change are still accepted, the Go Ventura card allows you the convenience of simply boarding the bus and just tapping your card on the available reader device. It's that convenient. All you have to do is relax and enjoy the ride!

Like a pre-paid card, the Go Ventura card's computer chip remembers your fare and stores any prepaid dollar amount you choose. Best of all, your Go Ventura card can be customized to your individual travel needs. Similar to a credit card in appearance, the Go Ventura bus pass is an electronic "smart card" that can be used on almost all public buses in Ventura County.

When a typical bus pass gets lost, you're out the money you paid for it. Not so with the Go Ventura bus pass! If your Go Ventura card is lost or stolen, a replacement card can be issued for $10 with proper identification and your product balance is transferred to the new card. It's that easy.

Bus riders who use the old method of bus passes just don't have the same convenience. Being able to replace your card adds a measure of protection you can rely on.
