Why you should register your OPUS card

When your card is registered, you can transfer your fares to a new OPUS card if it’s ever lost or stolen. You’ll only need to pay the issuance fee for the new card. 

If your OPUS card isn’t registered and you lose it, any fares loaded on it will be lost. 

Photo OPUS cards are registered automatically.
