Young people
Get great deals for young people, aged between 5 and 18, with our free busID.
Our busID allows you to load tickets straight onto the card via your online account, use it to accompany our child mobile-tickets on the app, or to pay a reduced cash fare from the driver. If you top up online your new ticket can take up to 5 hours from the purchase time to be available to use on the bus. This excludes both Annual and Pay Monthly tickets as these require a predetermined start date of at least 48 hours after the date of buying a product.
Please note that we regularly audit busID accounts to confirm that only those holding this card are using these tickets. You may receive an email asking for proof of your busID status; this should be provided by the date requested, either by sending a copy of your valid registration card by return to the email or by taking it to 1 Stop Travel, North Street, Brighton, by the due date.
Here are details of tickets available both online and on our app:
