There was a discussion about this on reddit, and based on the wording on GRT's site, the conclusion was that a monthly pass counts as proof-of-payment, regardless of whether it's been tapped or not**

I overheard someone on the train telling an inspector that they have a monthly pass but weren't sure the tap went through because they were rushing to get on, and it sounded like the inspector needed to take extra steps to see if they had a valid pass instead of just taping the card and moving on.
