What Is Clipper?
The Clipper card is a convenient and secure way to manage your Bay Area transit fares and transfers in an easy-to-use, all-in-one, reloadable card. It is accepted on all Bay Area public transit, including all Muni vehicles, BART, AC Transit, Caltrain, SamTrans, VTA, Golden Gate Transit and Ferry, San Francisco Bay Ferry and 14 other Bay Area transit services.
Purchasing A Monthly Pass
Sign up for Autoload and have your monthly pass automatically loaded on your Clipper card each month or make a one-time pass purchase.
Monthly passes can be purchased on your Clipper card or on the app for the current month from the 1st –16th via the app or at any Clipper retailer or at a Ticket Vending Machine located in every Muni Metro Station. After the 16th of each month, the following month's pass is available for purchase. Monthly passes have a three day grace period at the beginning of the following month.
