New TVMs!

DART is currently installing new ticket vending machines (TVMs) throughout the system. The touchscreen TVMs offer added features and a smoother experience.


In addition to purchasing paper DART passes like before, the new TVMs will allow you to:

  1. Buy and reload GoPass® Tap cards.
  2. Reload your GoPass® app with cash.
  3. Check your GoPass account balance.
  4. See your progress on daily and monthly fare capping.
  1. View the transaction history of your GoPass® account.
  2. Pay with cash, credit and debit cards, or mobile wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Wallet, and Samsung Wallet.

TAP. PAY. GO.

TVM Replacement in Progress

As we take an old machine out of service, we also must temporarily disconnect the GoPass Tap card reader located next to it. In most cases, the new TVM – along with the card reader – will be installed and operational by the next day.


Please use another in-service TVM or card reader, or purchase your DART pass with the GoPass® app.

The installations will begin in late summer 2025 and continue through 
mid-2026.

How to use a DART TVM

DART has TVMs on all rail platforms and at the Northwest Plano Park & Ride. Using a TVM is easy. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  1. Select the correct fare. For a complete list of available DART fares and to see which one works best for your trip, please click the button below.
  2. You can buy up to 5 passes per transaction.
  3. Paying with cash? TVMs accept coins and $1, $5, $10, and $20 bills. The machines do not accept pennies. Try to use the smallest bill possible.
  1. Keep your pass handy in case fare enforcement asks to see your tickets or passes.
  2. If you purchase a Reduced Fare, you will also need to show your DART-issued Reduced Fare ID. Seniors over 65 may use their Medicare card as their ID. High school students may use a valid DART Service Area high school ID.
