Your m-Card. Cool.
The m-Card is an interactive smart card used to pay your fare when riding with Metrobus Transit. When you board one of our buses, simply hold the card in front of the on-board validator. The validator recognizes what type of fare or pass is on the card and approves or denies the ride, electronically, in about a second or two.
The neat thing about the m-Card is that once you buy your first one, you keep using the same card, week after week, month after month. Value is added to the card by the user, at any of our add value machines located at our existing sales outlets, or you can add value to your card online at metrobus.com using a credit or debit card. Once your online transaction has been approved and processed, we'll add the purchase value to your card electronically, the next time you present it in front of an m-Card validator on any of our buses. |

m-Points & m-Rewards. Really cool.
Ride, collect, cash-in. Use your m-Card to ride with Metrobus Transit and you'll earn m-Points that can be redeemed for valuable gift cards from a number of different retailers. In order to earn points though, you must register your m-Card.
You'll earn one point for every ride you take with Metrobus Transit to a maximum of 5 points per day using your m-Card. In addition, there will be bonus days allowing you to earn bonus points for riding on that particular day. Bonus days will be advertised through metrobus.com. Now more than ever, it pays to ride with Metrobus Transit. |

m-Card Gold Club
Customers who obtain 625 m-Points or more in a calendar year will automatically be enrolled in our m-Card Gold Club.
We'll mail you out a new gold m-Card and we'll even personalize the card with a digital photograph that you provide to us, at no additional charge.
But the greatest advantage to being a Gold Club member is that you'll earn m-Points twice as fast with your gold m-Card - instead of a point per ride, you'll accumulate two points per ride - your m-Points will add up fast!
To keep your standing in the Gold Club, you'll need to accumulate 625 m-Points each year. If you are not able to do so, you can still use your gold-coloured m-Card when riding with Metrobus, however, you will once again accumulate m-Points at the regular rate of one point per ride.
Membership has its advantages!
Bonus points and transferred points from another card do not count toward Gold Card status. |

Changes coming to m-Rewards
program
Starting January 1, 2011, a number of changes will be implemented with respect to the m-Rewards/m-Points program.
First, you will be able to redeem your points for m-Card reloads including 10-ride, 30-day and monthly passes.
Second, we are implementing a maximum point balance you can accumulate before having to use your points. The limit will be 2,500 m-Points. Effective March 1, 2011, if you have over 2,500 points in your account, you will not be able to accumulate any more points and you will lose any points in excess of 2,500.
Customers with high point balances are encouraged to redeem their points so they can continue to collect them and earn valuable m-Rewards.
Finally, there will be a “price increase” with respect to m-Rewards going into effect in the new year so if you have been saving your points, you may want to think about redeeming them at the lower m-Point price before the end of this year.
New prices wil be as follows effective January 1, 2011:
$10
m-Rewards - 250 m-Points
$25
m-Rewards - 600 m-Points
$50
m-Rewards - 1,100 m-Points
10-Ride
Reloads: Adult - 500 m-Points Child -
400 m-Points Senior - 400 m-Points
30-day
& Monthly Pass Reloads: Adult - 1,350 m-Points
Child - 1,000 m-Points Senior - 1,000 m-Points |
