A division of Metrolinx, an agency of the Ontario Government, PRESTO is the fare payment system for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area and Ottawa.
Ontario’s One Fare Program is making it easier and more affordable to choose transit first. When you use PRESTO to travel between 2 or more connecting transit agencies, you’ll save money! Here are some important things to remember.
The more you ride, the more you save
1
You will be charged a full fare for the first part of your trip. Once you tap to transfer to a participating transit agency, your discount will be applied.
2
Your discount will be applied when you tap to transfer to a participating connecting transit agency. It may be a free transfer, or a discounted fare depending on which agency you are traveling with.
3
Your transfer window will start the first time you tap. If you transfer to GO Transit during your trip, your transfer window will reset when you tap at a GO station or on a GO bus.
