Total Access PATH Payment, or TAPP, is the quickest and easiest way to pay for your PATH ride. Just like other contactless payments, all you need is a credit card or debit card with the contactless symbol, a smartphone, or a wearable with a digital wallet. Then, just tap on the reader, wait for “GO” and then head to your train.

\\r\\n

Contactless Cards

\\r\\n

Contactless cards are the latest generation of credit and debit cards. If you see the contactless symbol on your card, you can use it at TAPP turnstiles at all PATH stations! To pay for your PATH fare, tap your contactless card at the TAPP reader.

\\r\\n

Banks and financial institutions have started switching to contactless cards to make payments faster and more secure for their customers. If you do not have a contactless card today, you can request one from your bank or financial institution.

\\r\\n

Digital Wallets

\\r\\n

Digital wallets use smart device applications, like Apple Pay®, Google Pay®, and Samsung Pay®, allowing you to make payments with smart phones, smart watches, or wearables. Like contactless cards, smart devices also use contactless technology. To make fare payments with your device at TAPP readers, you will need to add your debit, credit or reloadable prepaid card to your device's digital wallet.

\\r\\n

If you have more than one payment card linked to your digital wallet, make sure to choose which card you want to use before paying your fare at a TAPP reader. Otherwise, the reader will use the default card linked to your digital wallet.

\\r\\n

You may need to unlock your smart device to use your digital wallet. Refer to the user guides and settings for your smart device and mobile wallet to learn more.

\\r\\n

When you add your payment card to your digital wallet, it will create a device account number. The device account number is different for each smart device that you use. The last four digits of each device account number will appear in your TAPP account when you use your device at TAPP readers.

Paying Your Fare Directly At The Turnstile

\\r\\n

TAPP readers allow you to pay your fare by tapping your contactless debit, credit or reloadable prepaid card and your digital wallet-enabled smart devices – all while using the contactless payment card or smart device you already have!

\\r\\n

TAPP readers do not accept SmartLink or MetroCard. Please continue to use non-TAPP turnstiles when paying with these fare media. TAPP does not accept OMNY.

\\r\\n

$\\\"\\\"$

\\r\\n

TAPP Reader Screens

\\r\\n

As soon as you tap your contactless debit, credit or reloadable prepaid card, or your digital wallet-enabled smart device at a TAPP reader, it will display a message to confirm if your fare payment tap was successful. In situations where your tap was not successful, or the TAPP reader may not have accepted your tap, different screens appear on the reader to indicate what may have gone wrong.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Black$ \\r\\n

Tap Here

\\r\\n

This screen indicates that the TAPP reader is operational and ready to be used. If you see this screen, just tap and go!

\\r\\n

$\\\"Green$ \\r\\n

Go

\\r\\n

You made a successful tap at a TAPP reader. Walk through and enjoy your ride on PATH!

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Tap Again

\\r\\n

Your tap was not successful. You can try again.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Tap One Card

\\r\\n

The reader has detected more than one contactless payment card or smart device. Try tapping again using only one card or device.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Payment Method Expired

\\r\\n

Your payment card was not accepted. You may see this screen if you tapped a card beyond the card expiration date.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Payment Method Not Accepted

\\r\\n

Your payment card was not accepted. You may see this screen if you tapped a canceled card or if your travel card is blocked or suspended.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Ride Limit Exceeded

\\r\\n

You have exceeded the 4 maximum successful taps for one card or device. You can tap and pay for yourself and up to 3 additional riders with the same card on a single trip.

\\r\\n

$\\\"Red$ \\r\\n

Not In Service

\\r\\n

This screen appears in one of several scenarios. For example, you may see this screen if the turnstile is undergoing maintenance, or if the TAPP reader isn’t responsive.
