A TAP card is required to ride Metro Rail (any trip), and load any pass for Metro. TAP cards ($2) are available at all Los Angeles Metro ticket machines and onboard buses (plus a fare minimum). Cash is accepted on most bus routes at the farebox at the front door.
Riders paying one way fare with TAP card can transfer to other Metro lines with no additional cost (except Silver and express lines) up to two hours to complete a one way trip.
Day and 30-day passes are no longer available and replaced by daily and 7 day fare maximum on TAP cards. Just put cash value on the TAP card and regular fare will be deducted until the fare cap has reached and remainder of the rides will be free until the end of day or end of 7 day period.
