More Ways to Pay
Wave Card
The Wave card is a smart card that allows you to pay for travel on OCTA public transit services in Orange County. It’s a reloadable payment card and offers balance protection plus the benefit of daily and monthly fare capping. It can be purchased online or at participating retailers.
Contactless Cards
You probably already have a contactless card in your wallet. They allow you to securely tap your card to pay and will have a symbol on the front or back like a Wi-Fi symbol turned on its side. Contactless cards can also be added to a mobile wallet and used when boarding.
