How to get a free transfer with a Bee Card on the bus*

There’s no need to let your driver know you’re transferring.

Step one: Tag onto your first bus 

Step two: Tag off your first bus 

Step three: Tag onto your next bus within 45 minutes of tagging off the first bus 

Step four: Tag off your second bus when you depart (to close the transaction). 

*There are no free transfers when paying for a fare with cash. To be eligible for a free transfer, you must tag on and off using your Bee Card. There are no free transfers between the bus and ferry services.
