Join our virtual open house on May 4 as we showcase the new and improved ORCA!
Introducing the new ORCA
Beginning May 16, 2022, the new myORCA mobile app and website will make paying for transit rides in the Puget Sound region faster and easier.
Later in 2022, we’re adding more retail locations where you can buy and reload ORCA cards and launching a new card design.
The best way
to get around
the Puget Sound
ORCA is how the Puget Sound gets around. From buses, trains and ferries, you can use the ORCA card to pay fares and transfer seamlessly. On May 16, 2022, we're updating the ORCA experience and adding new features customers have asked for. Stay connected with us to learn more about improvements including a new website and mobile app, real-time fare loading, more retail locations and a new card design.
What you need to know
How is ORCA changing?
We’re upgrading ORCA. That means a better payment experience and more choices for managing your account.
Soon you can add fare value in real-time, manage your account from anywhere with the new myORCA App or website and find more retail locations closer to you. As we upgrade the system, lookout for new ORCA card readers and vending machines across the region.
With the new and improved ORCA system, you have the flexibility to keep using the card you have. If you use ORCA at retail stores, you will need a new, re-designed card later in 2022.
When is this happening?
Beginning May 16, 2022, you can connect your ORCA Card to the new myORCA app or manage your account at myORCA.com.
Later in 2022, we are adding more retail locations and launching a new, re-designed card that works at all stores where ORCA cards are sold.
Sign up for project alerts and details as they become available.
What do I need to do?
If you already have an ORCA card, keep using it. On May 16, 2022, connect your card and set up your account on myORCA.com or via the myORCA app.
If you use ORCA at retail stores, be prepared for changes to how you buy and reload your card.
If you share an ORCA card with someone, get ready to use the new system by making sure each rider has their own card. Group fares for school trips and caregivers will still be available.
If you are a business and have an account or are interested in getting one,
