Riders load money onto their PRONTO card or mobile app, then tap or scan each time you board. A one-way fare will be deducted each time you ride. You’ll never pay more than a Day Pass in a day, or a Month Pass in a calendar month. *COASTER  services not included in Earn As You Go.

Riders can load money to PRONTO through the mobile app or online at ridePRONTO.com; over the phone at 619-595-5636; and in-person at ticket vending machines, participating retail outlets, or at the MTS Transit Store or NCTD Customer Service Centers.

Day Passes will not be available for pre-purchase (except for the COASTER). Riders can still purchase a Month Pass in advance. Month Passes are valid from the first through the last day of the calendar month. The COASTER will require upfront payment for Day and Month Passes.

There will be Month passes, good from the first day of the calendar month to the last day. There will be no rolling 30-day products.

Riders can load cash value onto their PRONTO cards at ticket machines, retail outlets, and the MTS Transit Store or NCTD Customer Service Centers.
