Compass card (British Columbia) (English Wikipedia)

"What's the minimum amount of Stored Value required to start a journey?". compasscard.ca. Retrieved September 2, 2022. When you use Stored Value on buses, SkyTrain, SeaBus, or HandyDART, Compass allows you to complete a single journey with as little as $0.01 on your card by giving you a negative card balance. For West Coast Express customers, the minimum Stored Value amount is $4.50 due to fare structures and related considerations.
