rideRTC App Tap & GO

Visiting Las Vegas and want the flexibility to ride the bus when you want? Prefer to use cash but want the convenience of using the rideRTC app to pay for a single-ride? The new Tap & GO feature in the rideRTC app is for you!

rideRTC Tap & GO Features

RTC Tap & GO offers new flexibility and convenience that lets you purchase single-ride fares directly in the rideRTC app! With RTC Tap & GO, you can add funds using a credit or debit card, or using cash at a Cash To Mobile location. After you add funds, just scan the barcode on the main screen of the app when you board the bus and the appropriate single-ride fare is automatically deducted from your account balance.

Tap & GO is perfect for the traveler who only plans to take a single trip on transit, or isn’t sure exactly when they will make their return trip. This flexibility makes Tap & GO an especially convenient option for visitors using the Deuce on the Strip or in downtown Las Vegas. The feature is also available for those who don’t have a credit or debit card, as you can add funds to your account at select Cash To Mobile locations.

You can utilize your existing rideRTC account to access Tap & GO. Just log in as you normally would and use the new Tap & GO option displayed at the top of the app.

Follow these steps to set up Tap & GO in the rideRTC app:

  1. Download the rideRTC app
  2. Create an account or use your existing account
  3. Tap the Tap & GO banner
  4. Tap Register a Barcode
  5. Tap Create a Barcode

Once your Tap & GO account is set up:

  1. Add funds to your account using a credit/debit card or by visiting a Cash To Mobile location.
  2. Upon boarding the bus, scan your app’s barcode. The cost of a single-ride fare will automatically be deducted from the funds in your rideRTC account.

Yes. Once you complete the steps to obtain a Reduced Fare ID Card and enter your Reduced Pass ID number in the rideRTC app, the reduced fare amount will automatically be deducted from your account each time you scan your Tap & GO barcode.

No, Tap & GO is only available in the rideRTC app.

No, there are no additional fees. Single rides for the Deuce (serving the Strip and downtown Las Vegas) will deduct $4 from your balance and single rides for residential routes will deduct $2.

No, Tap & GO allows you to add funds using a credit card or cash and stores that money in the rideRTC app, much like a digital wallet. The funds are deducted from your credit card when you add the funds to your app account. When you scan your app’s barcode, funds are then deducted from your in-app wallet.

Yes, you can use cash to add funds to your rideRTC app account at convenient locations throughout the valley.

Yes, multi-hour and multi-day passes are still available in the rideRTC app.

At this time, the Tap & GO barcode can only be used for a single rider at a time.

Passengers using Game Day Express should still purchase a dedicated Game Day Express pass in the rideRTC app.
