Free travel is available for some passengers such as children five and under (not attending school) and ACT seniors over 70. Check concession eligibility.

Autoload and BPAY discounts on MyWay
MyWay users who register their card and recharge through autoload (direct debit) or BPAY are eligible for a 5% discount on their individual trip fares. The discount is applied automatically once the recharge payment has been processed.
The 5% discount is determined by the last payment method. For example, when a BPAY or autoload payment is processed, any trips taken after this payment will have the 5% discount applied. Should another payment method be received and processed (e.g. cash payment) the 5% discount will be removed until another BPAY or autoload payment is processed.
Please note that the 5% discount is only applicable to individual trip fares. The discount does not apply to daily fare caps.
Infringements
