Metro Bike Share accounts are now managed through TAP, and here’s what you need to know.

You no longer need separate accounts to manage your Metro Bus and Rail fare and your Metro Bike Share passes. All of it can be handled on TAP — which means you’ll need to make sure your TAP card is registered on taptogo.net. If you don’t already have a TAP account, follow the steps below to create one. If you already have a TAP account and just need to enroll in Metro Bike Share, skip down to step three (and learn how to get a free Monthly Pass while you’re at it!).

You’ll also be able to sign up for the new, more affordable annual bike share pass.

-Click ‘Create Account’
-Fill in all fields and click ‘Submit’
-Check email for link to set up password (link is valid for 24 hours)
-Complete instructions to set up password

1. Register your TAP card to your account:

-Navigate to ‘My TAP Cards’

To make the transition to TAP easier, we are offering all new and existing riders a free Metro Bike Share Monthly Pass with promo code BIKESONTAP.*

*All trips 30 minutes or less are included in the Monthly Pass. Usage fees of $1.75 per each 30 minutes thereafter apply. Offer valid September 29 – October 31, 2018.

Bringing Metro Bike Share onto TAP paves the way for future features, including Reduced Fare passes and a rewards system that will help integrate all of Metro’s mobility services. Stay tuned for Reduced Fare options coming soon for seniors, people with disabilities , college/vocational students, and low-income customers.
