💸 A simple mistake could cost you €54.90 or more!
Rome’s public transport is convenient, but one ticket mistake could cost you a fine instead of a €1.50 ride! 😭
🎟️ Here’s how to avoid fines:
✅ Buy and validate your ticket. A regular BIT ticket costs €1.50 and is valid for 100 minutes from activation.
💳 Use Tap & Go! Tap your contactless card or phone on the reader when boarding. No need to buy a paper ticket!
🚍 Tap every time you board, even when transferring. Use the same card or device throughout your journey.
👀 Ticket inspectors conduct random checks. If you use Tap & Go, present the same card or device you used to pay.
💸 Forgot to validate? You could face a fine starting at €54.90 if paid within 5 days.
💡 BONUS MONEY-SAVING TIP!
Tap & Go automatically calculates your best fare. Once you reach your sixth paid 100-minute ticket within 24 hours, your total fare is capped at €8.50, giving you unlimited rides for the remainder of that 24-hour period.
⚠️ The €7 daily fare was the previous rate. The current 24-hour fare is €8.50.
Save this before exploring Rome! Better to spend your euros on pasta and gelato than fines. 🍝🍦🇮🇹
