FAQs
No, the Metrebus Card has no expiration date. If you hold a student Metrebus card, upon turning 26, you will no longer be eligible for the student discount, and your Metrebus card can only be loaded with annual and monthly passes.
Once you receive the Metrebus Card, you can choose to load a monthly or annual pass at the time of recharge.
No student discount can be applied to a monthly pass.
On your student Metrebus Card (which has not yet been loaded), you can load either a monthly pass (at full price) or a student pass (valid from September to June).
No, the Metrebus Card is unique; you cannot request a second Card.

It depends on the type of subscription:
– Monthly: A recharge done before the 26th of the month is always valid for the current month. From the 26th onwards, the recharge can be made for the following month. For example, recharging a monthly subscription on April 15th will validate it for April. If recharged from April 26th onwards, you can choose whether the recharge is for May.
– Annual: Valid from the day of recharge for one year.
– Students: Always valid from September 1st to June 30th.
If you are under 26 and need a pass for the period from September to June, you can purchase a student pass. The procedure to request a student Metrebus Card is the same as for ordinary card requests on our website (link). During the online form completion, select the “student” category. Once you receive the Card, you can load it directly from our website (link).
The zones selected during recharge cannot be modified or supplemented until the next renewal, at which time a new recharge can be made.
