Tap On Tap Off, the quick and easy way to pay for your bus travel at the best price, is now on board Centrebus buses across Leicester and Leicestershire.
Simply hop on the bus and "Tap On" with your driver using a credit/debit card or with Apple Pay or Google Pay, and when you leave just tap off with the dedicated reader. We then automatically calculate and charge the best adult fare. It's as easy as that!
-
If you make additional journeys throughout the same day, your payment will be capped at the adult day ticket price.
-
If you make additional journeys throughout the week, your price will be capped at the adult week ticket price.
-
No matter how many trips you make and which bus company you travel with, you will receive the best value fare.
No need to worry about having the correct change or having to buy a ticket upfront. Simply “tap on” and “tap off” as you travel.
If you travel more frequently, your total fare will be automatically capped to the best value ticket available, up to and including the Week ticket. Therefore, you will be charged up to the Day, 3Day and Weekly cap, which ever is the best value; so whether you travel a little or a lot, you will always get the best price! If you also travel with First, Arriva, Vectare or Stagecoach, your fare will be capped at the Leicester Flexi Day or Weekly ticket price.
