Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Clipper card" in English language version.
Limited-use tickets can only be used for one-way and round trips on Golden Gate Ferry and Muni and provide no transfer discounts, but youth, senior and disabled riders can purchase discounted tickets at ticket machines.
Your value will be available immediately if you add value to a card in Apple Wallet or Google Pay, whether you are adding the value through the Clipper app or in your wallet. The exception is BART HVD, which will be available the following day.
If you purchase value for your plastic Clipper card online or by phone, it won't be available immediately. When it is, you will have to pick it up by tagging your card to a card reader, which will load the value onto your plastic Clipper card. Here's how long you'll need to wait to pick it up:
- If you place your order by midnight, you can usually pick it up in the next 1 to 2 days.
- If you are picking up your value on a bus or a Muni light-rail vehicle, allow up to 5 days.
- If you are setting up automatic reloading (Autoload) with a bank account, allow an additional 10 days for value to be available.
Just like with plastic Clipper cards, we charge a one-time fee of $3 to help cover our operating costs to make sure our programs and services can continue serving everyone.
We have waived the $3 fee for the next six months, after that we will charge $3 for virtual cards to help cover operational costs (same as plastic cards).
One day left to get Clipper on your phone for free! Clipper's $3 card fee is waived until Friday (10/15) for new cards on Apple Wallet or Google Pay.
You can transfer an adult, Senior, Youth or RTC card to your phone. You cannot transfer a blocked card, a TransLink card, or a card with a Gator Pass or VTA SmartPass to your phone at this time. RTC cardholders and bike share users should keep their cards!
