Philadelphia buses and trolleys will no longer accept payment tokens on Jan. 1, when users will be required to pay with “travel wallets,” according to a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority press release.
SEPTA encourages customers to add the value of their tokens, valued at $2 apiece, to a SEPTA Key card at a fare kiosk. Tokens can be used to load a pass to a Key card or to add funds to the Travel Wallet feature.
The Travel Wallet can be used to pay for trips on all modes, including buses, trolleys, the Market-Frankford Line, the Broad Street Line, the Norristown High Speed Line and the Regional Rail. Customers who use Travel Wallet on SEPTA Key are also eligible for two free transfers.
The sale of tokens ended in 2018; however, SEPTA continued to accept tokens on buses and trolleys, and via fare kiosks located at stations and bus loops.
