SunCards
The reloadable convenience of a SunCard offers peace of mind to regular riders, while also delivering cost savings that their pocketbooks appreciate.
SunCard Prepaid Value
SunCard Prepaid Value allows you to reload your card on your schedule to meet the frequency of your commute.
For individuals who use SunRail less frequently and enjoy the benefits of owning a SunCard, prepaid value stands out as an excellent option.
Riders receive an additional 10% bonus value upon loading their card with prepaid value.

Balance Protection
SunCard Balance Protection ensures peace of mind for riders in case of lost, stolen, or damaged cards. SunCards purchased online are automatically set up, while those acquired from a Ticket Vending Machine (TVM) require online registration by the riders.
Where To Buy
Riders can buy their SunCard from a TVM located at all 16 SunRail stations. These machines accept both cash and credit/debit cards, ensuring convenient purchase and management of your SunCards. All TVMs are ADA accessibile.
