You can load many ten-ride packages onto your Saskatoon Transit Go-Pass Card. Load your Go-Pass Card with pre-paid fares at the Transit Customer Service Centre or any Transit Pass Vendor. One fare will be deducted each time you board the bus.

There is a 90 minute transfer period where passengers can travel on multiple buses within that time frame. To transfer, swipe the same card or your mobile pass within 90 minutes on another bus and the system will recognize this as a transfer.

(Please note pre-paid purchases are only available in multiples of 10)

Yearly passes on your mobile device or Go-Pass are only available at the Transit Customer Service Centre.
