Best Fare

myki gives you the best fare for the way that you travel.


Using myki money, your fare will be capped at a 2 hour, daily or weekly (Monday - Sunday) maximum, no matter how much you travel.

Alternatively, pre-purchase of myki pass ensures you receive the best discounted fares.


In Melbourne, myki money can calculate your best fare as you travel, and deduct it automatically as you scan off at the end of your trip.

For example:

    * If you scan on and scan off in Melbourne city one morning, myki money can calculate that the best fare for you is a two hour Zone One.
    * Then if you travel more than once during the same day, myki money will re-calculate the best fare for you as a daily fare.
    * The more you travel during the same week, myki money will automatically give you the best fare by capping your accrued travel to a weekly fare.

This is exactly what the Go Card fares should be.  What is wrong with the Queensland Government and Translink, allowing the public transport commuters of SEQ to be subjected to such an inequitable fare structure as is the FU scheme on the Go Card?
