Terms and Conditions |
Y10 Monthly passes are available on physical or Mobile Wallet PRESTO cards and are not available through the PRESTO E-Tickets app. Existing cardholders are required to complete enrolment through the online enrolment form five days prior to the end of the September monthly pass purchase window, September 15, 2024. This allows customers adequate time to complete their Y10 monthly pass purchase at a point of sale location following the remote loading of the Y10 concession. When a new PRESTO card is purchased at a point of sale location, the Y10 concession will be added to the card at the time of purchase. Completion of the online enrolment form is required to continue receiving the Y10 monthly pass pricing for October through June. No exceptions can be granted if enrolment and purchase of the September Y10 monthly pass is not completed by September 15, 2024. Subsequent monthly passes must be purchased on or before the 15th day of each month. No exceptions can be granted for customers wishing to purchase a monthly pass after the 15th day of the current month. The online enrolment form must be completed in order to continue receiving the Y10 monthly pass and save more than $19 each month. Customers must purchase the Y10 monthly pass every month from September 2024 through to June 2025. If a pass is not purchased for a month, the discount will not apply for the remainder of the promotional period. The expiry of the Y10 concession will result in the PRESTO card reverting to the default adult fare. Youth who want to continue receiving the regular youth single ride or monthly pass rate must visit a DRT point of sale location with proof of birthdate to have the regular youth concession loaded onto their card. If the Presto card used to complete your enrolment form has been replaced due to the card being lost, stolen or damaged, please contact DRT Customer Service to update your enrolment with your new card information. Your new card information is required for DRT to issue the Y10 discount for subsequent months. |
