Clipper Card

Clipper is an all-in-one transit card that keeps track of any passes and cash value you load onto it while applying all applicable fares, discounts, and transfer rules.  This lets you customize your card for your own transit needs.  A Clipper card makes boarding faster, eliminates the need to carry exact change, and can be registered for added protection in case it’s lost.

You may use Clipper on many public transit services throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including BART.

‍Transfers When Using Clipper

Transfers to/from other Transit Agencies

Currently, Clipper supports transfers to/from SolTrans and connecting transit agencies including:

• Golden Gate Transit 40/42
• NAPA VINE Route 11
• San Francisco Bay Ferry (Vallejo-SF Ferry only)*
• WestCat
• County Connection

Transfers to and from other bus agencies are good for 60 minutes. Full fares are charged for transfers to/from all other transit agencies that use Clipper.

*Transfers to/from Vallejo SF Bay Ferry

Transfers between SolTrans and the Vallejo SF Bay Ferry receive a local fare credit of $1.75 for adults, $1.50 for youth, and $0.85 for Seniors/Persons with Disabilities/Medicare card holders.

This means SolTrans riders transferring from a local bus route can pay a reduced Clipper e-cash fare on the Vallejo-SF Ferry.

For Ferry riders transferring to the SolTrans system, transfers are free on local bus routes. Clipper will only detect e-cash transfers as the Ferry Monthly Pass is not currently available on Clipper.

Note: There are no transfers within the SolTrans system, (i.e. from one SolTrans route to another). For same-day, multi-route trips, passengers should purchase day passes.
