Before you start
- You must have a registered AT HOP card and have your credit or debit card details handy.
- The monthly pass price does not include the (non-refundable) $10 one-off purchase price of an AT HOP card.
- There are no refunds for activated AT HOP monthly passes.
- Only one monthly pass of the same type can be loaded on your card at a time. A second monthly pass can only be loaded once the first monthly pass has been activated.
If you have an existing AT HOP card, find out how to register your AT HOP card.
Step 1: Choose the card you want to apply a monthly pass to
In your MyAT account, under "MyAT HOP cards":
- Select the card you want to apply a monthly pass to.
- Select the "Available products" tab.
- Select "Buy a monthly pass".
Step 2: Select monthly pass and payment
Choose the type of monthly pass you want. Confirm your payment details or change if needed, then select "Pay now".
Your pass will then appear as pending while it is being processed.
If you travel by bus, your pass should be ready by the next day, but it may take 24 to 72 hours.
If you travel by train or ferry, your pass will be ready in an hour.
Make sure you have enough HOP money for travel until your monthly pass activates. Find out more about topping up your card.
Step 3: Tag on to activate
You will need to tag at an AT HOP reader or electronic gate within 60 days for your monthly pass to be activated on your AT HOP card.
If you do not tag on
Your pass will remain showing as pending in your online account.
What happens next
- The monthly pass starts from the day the pass is first activated (tagged on), e.g. if you tag on 13 January the pass is valid until midnight 12 February.
- If you do not tag on within 60 days, the pass will expire and and the payment will be reversed to the credit or debit card used to buy the pass.
Travelling with your AT HOP monthly pass
Tag on and tag off
- You have to tag on and tag off as you travel. If you fail to tag on and tag off you may be charged a default fare.
Using both HOP money and a monthly pass
- We suggest that, in addition to your monthly pass, you maintain a small HOP money balance.
- HOP money can be used to cover other travel not included in the monthly pass.
If the HOP money on your card goes into a negative balance, your card, including your monthly pass, cannot be used until the negative balance is cleared by topping up your card.
