Selecting Transit Cards & Passes
CTA now lets you order your fare media over the Internet. Our
Ticket-By-Internet program allows you to place an order from the convenience of your home,
office, school... anywhere you can log in and connect to our Web site.
You can purchase your Transit Card or Visitor Passes any time of the day or night using
your Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover Card.
Purchasing your CTA fare has never been easier, and with no shipping charges buying online
is the same price as buying in person.
Please remember to click only once the "I Accept" button
on "Order Summary" page while placing your order.
Clicking "I Accept" button more than once will generate multiple orders
and multiple charges on your credit card. Thank you for your cooperation!
Please allow 7-10 business days for delivery.
