SmartLink

The SmartLink Card is a durable, plastic card with an embedded computer chip that keeps track of the number of available prepaid trips, as well as the number of days remaining on an Unlimited Pass.

SmartLink is available:

  • Online
  • From blue SmartLink vending machines in most PATH stations (See chart below.)
    NOTE: SmartLink Zero-trip Card vending machines accept one $5 bill. SmartLink 10-trip Card vending machines accept two $10 bills or one $20 bill.
  • From participating newsstands at or near PATH stations (See chart below). SmartLink vending machines do not accept debit/credit cards or electronic transit benefits debit cards.

SmartLink users may add trips and unlimited passes:

SmartLink users can enjoy the added convenience of Auto-Refill and have trips and unlimited passes loaded to their card automatically.
