SEPTA Key Tix is an easy-to-use option to purchase tickets for one or more persons using your mobile device. Use SEPTA Key Tix for bus, trolley, the Broad Street Line (BSL), Market-Frankford Line (MFL), and Norristown High Speed Line (NHSL). This does not replace SEPTA Key cards or Quick Trip but provides a simple solution for occasional riders who want to enjoy the same benefits as cardholders, including one free transfer per Transit trip.
SEPTA Key Tix gives people traveling together the capability to “scan once” by activating up to 5 one-way tickets to pay fares for up to five riders using a single barcode.
