• Reloadable
• Gives access to the student or 65+ reduced fare (with photo)

• Can be registered for free in the owner’s name using this form, allowing the owner to recover its contents in case of loss or theft
• Certain transit fares (e.g., All Modes AB, All Modes ABC, or All Modes ABCD) can only be loaded onto a dedicated OPUS card, available at the ticket office
• Cost of $6 (regular OPUS card) or $15 (reduced-fare OPUS card with photo)

2. Occasional card
