Smartlink
Multi-Journey (MJ) Smartlink fares offer considerable savings on these cash fares. The Smartlink MJ Card can be loaded with a number of journeys from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 40, in multiples of 5 journeys (5, 10, 15, 20, etc.).
The card can hold a maximum of 50 journeys. Smartlink MJ Card journeys are valid for 12 months from when you first purchase the card. Then, each time you ‘top up’ your Smartlink MJ Card all valid unused journeys have their validity extended for a further 12 months.
Any journeys not used within 12 months of a top-up are lost. The expiry date is shown on your ticket receipt each time you use your card on the bus.
When you buy your Smartlink MJ card, you will pay a one-off charge of £1.50 for the card.
The price for a Smartlink MJ Card (first purchase and topping up) for adults and children is as follows:
| ADULT | CHILD | |||
| First Purchase (inl. £1.50 for card) |
Top Up (no charge for card) |
First Purchase (incl. £1.50 for card) |
