Grand River Transit

Too bad, the way I suggested would have worked better and been faster. I get why it won’t work for ion at the station entry point stanchion, but there’s no reason the reader and screen at the FareCard machine couldn’t accommodate deducting multiple fares from the card.

This will ultimately result in congestion at the FareCard machines because guests will all need to buy individual single use tickets.

This may be a dumb question, but couldn't someone pay with their card and then just give their card to the other person?

Probably not because when the second rider tries to taps it won't deduct another fare it will probably say "fare already paid" or "transfer".
