Personal Public Transport Card

Logos

The Public Transport Card (TTP) is a personal and non-transferable contactless medium, allowing unlimited use on all bus lines, the Cercanías suburban rail network, the Metro network and Light Rail lines, within the configured zone and for a validity period of 30 calendar days.

To obtain it, there are two available formats: physical cards and virtual cards.

Physical Card.

The Personal Public Transport Card can be purchased online, at tobacconists, and at TTP Management Offices by appointment.

The TTP expires 10 years from its date of issue (4 years in the case of cards loaded with annual travel passes). The card displays the cardholder’s name and photograph, as well as a card identification number. It includes a two-year warranty, during which the user is entitled to free replacement of defective cards, provided that the damage is not due to misuse. Warranty management is handled through the Public Transport Card Management Offices of the CRTM.

If special discount conditions (large family or disability) are modified, the user must go to any Management Office with the documentation proving these circumstances (Large Family Card or Disability Certificate of 65% or higher). The card memory will be updated without the need to purchase a new card.

TTPs may contain one Personal Transport Pass and two non-personal tickets, or three non-personal tickets.

Transport Passes loaded on Personal Public Transport Cards are valid for 30 calendar days from the first use. If, after 10 days from loading, the ticket has not been validated, the 30-day validity period will start automatically. Therefore, in this case, the loaded passes will no longer be valid 40 days after the load date.

The card balance can be checked throughout the entire sales network: automatic machines in the Metro de Madrid and Light Rail networks, automatic machines in Cercanías Renfe, tobacconists and other authorised commercial establishments, and transport interchanges. It can also be checked using the "Mi Tarjeta Transporte" app developed by the Regional Transport Consortium.


Virtual Card. “Mi Tarjeta Transporte” App

To use this application, you must have a mobile phone with Android 9.0 or higher and NFC enabled. In addition, to use the virtual card, you must have the Google Wallet app installed.

iOS users can continue using the Tarjeta Transporte app to load their tickets.

Through the Mi Tarjeta Transporte app, you can purchase and load your anonymous TTP with different 10-trip tickets* or tourist tickets, and convert your Personal TTP into a virtual card, load it with the required tickets, and use it to validate your journeys directly from your mobile phone.

(*) With virtual cards, you can purchase the same tickets as with physical cards, except for single Metro de Madrid tickets, bus single tickets, single tickets for Metro Ligero Oeste (MLO) and Tranvía de Parla , as well as 10-trip tickets for MLO, 10-trip tickets for TFM and 10-trip tickets for the Tranvía de Parla.
