When you travel outside of peak times on metro, train, bus and light rail services you will receive a 30% discount. Find out more.

Adult Opal card and contactless card users get a $2 discount when switching between metro/train, ferry, bus, or light rail within 60 minutes of the last tap-off as part of one journey. Child/Youth, Gold Senior/Pensioner and Concession Opal card holders get a $1 discount.

• Off-peak fares are 30% cheaper, which can make some fares lower than the transfer discount.
• If the second trip costs less than the transfer discount, you pay $0 for the second trip.
• If it's equal, no further discounts apply.
• When transferring between Sydney Metro, Sydney Trains, and/or NSW TrainLink Intercity services it counts as one journey; no need to tap off and on again between services. You will be charged a single fare.

If you make several trips using the same mode of transport, and transfer within 60 minutes of your last tap off, it's one journey with one fare. Except for the Manly ferry, where it's 130 mins (2 hours and 10 minutes) from tap on.
