Ventra Outreach Events

SSMMA

From Pace Suburban Bus:

Building off of a successful campaign in late 2013 to distribute Ventra Cards and information to customers, Pace staff will again visit transit centers and transfer locations this summer to ensure customers are prepared for the ongoing transition to Ventra. Staff will again be on hand to distribute Ventra Cards and information to customers and respond to questions. Only one card will be offered to each customer. New Ventra customers only; those who already have Ventra cards, RTA Reduced Fare and Free Ride program permit holders are not eligible to receive one of the free cards. On average, three out of every five fare transactions on Pace buses are paid using Ventra. Passengers that still use cards on the legacy systems should spend down any remaining balance on old farecards before they’re phased out on June 1 for Chicago Card/Chicago Card Plus and on July 1 for magnetic stripe cards. Customers can continue to pay with cash, but after July 1, cash-paying Pace customers will no longer be able to buy a Transfer Card due to the deactivation of the magnetic stripe card system. As a result, customers who need to purchase transfers must transition to Ventra before July 1. The CTA ceased the issuance of transfers to cash-paying customers in 2005. Pace’s Ventra outreach events are scheduled at the following local locations. The full list of events is available at http://www.pacebus.com/Ventra.
