According to the operators that accept them, these titles are divided into three categories:
Valid only on Carris
One zone ticket
Electronic ticket that can be acquired on the amount you want.
- A unit of "One Zone Ticket" is valid to travel in one zone (Urban or Suburban), for one hour, counting between the first and the last validation.
- Two units of "One Zone Ticket" are valid for travelling in two zones (Urban + Suburban), for two hours, counting between the first and the last validation.
The validation is made in one of the electronic devices. It only debits one unit on the first validation and no other during an hour.
Two Zone Ticket Validation (urban + suburban)
The selection of the zones is made in the first trip and on the device with keyboard. You must press key 2 and then pass 7 Colinas and Viva Viagem cards at the same device. It debts immediately two units of the one zone ticket and expires 2 hours later. You may travel during this period, but you still have to validate your ticket on any device, without having to press any key and without spend any other unit till the end of title's validity period.
Valid on Carris and Metro
24 hours ticket Carris/Metro Network
Valid for an unlimited number of trips on Carris and Metro network during 24 hours since the first entrance validation.
This transport title is not valid neither in touristic circuits nor in special bus services to the Airport.
24 hours ticket Carris/Metro Network validation
Validation is made on any electronic device. The customer has 24 hours since the first validation to use Carris and Metro networks and he must always validate his card on each entry.
Valid on Carris, Metro and Transtejo/Soflusa
Zapping
Zapping consists in charging money onto a 7 Colinas, Viva Viagem or Lisboa Viva card, which is deducted as the customer validates the card on different transports, according to the prices in each Operator. This solution was designed for customers who are not regular users but often use one or more Public Transport Operator. - The first charging is €2 minimum and €15 maximum. - The following charges can be €0,01 minimum and €15 maximum. - The total stored on the card must be €20 as most. Besides bonus on charging, this title offers a discount for multimodal use, valid for trips that include two operators and taken on a predefined period of time. This bimodal discount is calculated based on 5% of the total cost of the trips and is automatically applied on the last validation. You may charge your card at any Carris, Metro and Transtejo/Soflusa point of sale.
ZAPPING VALIDATION
- One zone trips: Validation is made on any electronic validator.
The device debts only one unit on the first validation and no other on following trips during one hour. Validation is obligatory on every trip.
- Two zones trips: Zones selection is made in the first trip on the validator with keys. You must press key 2 and then pass 7 Colinas and Viva Viagem cards at the same device. It debts immediately two units of the one zone ticket which will expire 2 hours later.
On the following trips during this period, validation is still obligatory and can be made on any validator, without having to press keys or being debited other units until the validity period expires.
- If the customer wants to take a two zone trip but has validated just one, he can select at any moment key 2 and validate this option, passing the card at the device again. The device debits one more unit and the customer may use the ticket for 2 hours, counting from the initial validation (1st trip). Validation is obligatory on every trip.
