(GoRaleigh, GoDurham, and GoCary do not accept GoTriangle transfer cards.)

GoTriangle offers a discounted fare for customers who have a Medicare card and for persons with a disability. Seniors 65 and over are fare free. Youth 12 and under ride for free and are not required to have a Youth GoPass. Teens aged 13-18 can ride free with the Youth GoPass.

Each time you pay the discount fare or use a discount fare pass, you will need to present a valid ID to the driver. Find out what kinds of ID are accepted, and how to get a GoTriangle ID if you need one.
