2024 Fare Review Exercise: Concession Validity Extension for eligible graduating students

The following students who are currently holding a valid School Smart Card (SSC) or Student Concession card and whose concession eligibility expires on 28 December 2024 or later, will enjoy four more months of concession:

  1. MOE Secondary students, 
  2. Madrasah students,
  3. Junior College and Millenia Institute students,
  4. Institute of Technical Education (ITE) students (Secondary & Diploma),
  5. Diploma students from Government/Government-aided tertiary institutions (e.g. polytechnics),
  6. Eligible Secondary and Diploma students from Private Education Institutions (PEIs), and
  7. Homeschoolers 

Eligible students can extend their respective Concession cards between 1 October and 31 December 2024 at any self-help machines (i.e. Top-up Kiosk and SimplyGo Kiosk), SimplyGo Ticket Office/Ticketing Service Centre or Passenger Service Centres. Students can still extend their Concession validity after 31 December 2024 but will not be entitled to refunds for the journeys they had paid adult fares for previously.

Everything you need to know

Apart from the Child Concession Card, all new and replacement* Concession cards have to be activated before usage.

To activate your new/replacement* Concession card, please bring your original proof of identity (e.g. NRIC, passport, student pass) to any SimplyGo Ticket Office.

The minimum activation amount for the respective Concession card types is shown in the table below. You are recommended to top up at least $10 to ensure sufficient funds for your journey.

Concession Card Type Minimum Activation Amount

Not Required

 

Card activation has to be made in person to prevent card misuse. 

*Replacement cards printed and collected at the SimplyGo Kiosk can be used immediately. No activation is needed.

+PAssion Silver and Senior Citizen Concession card holders may only activate their cards from the actual day of their 60th birthday.

 

Concession cards can be topped up through any of the following channels:

*A convenience fee applies for each transaction.

The minimum top-up amount for the respective Concession cards is listed below:

Concession Card Type

  • All other concession cards

$10

 

You can also apply for the Auto Top-up facility with your credit card on the SimplyGo app or with a DBS/POSB ATM card at any Top-up Kiosk. 

The Auto Top-up scheme allows commuters to automatically add value to their Concession cards when the remaining card value is insufficient for fare payments in transit (MRT/Buses) or at selected non-transit merchants.  

The pre-selected Auto Top-up amount will be deducted from the registered credit or ATM card.

 

  • The Concession card must be carried as proof of eligibility when travelling on the MRT/LRT/bus in order to enjoy the travel concession. It must be shown to the bus driver, inspector or other authorised staff of SBS Transit, SMRT, LRT, Tower Transit, Go-Ahead Singapore and SimplyGo when requested.

  • If you are a Concession card holder and intend to pay cash, please inform the bus driver. Then, tap your Concession card at the reader to verify the card’s validity, before depositing cash into the fare box.

  • If you forgot to bring your Concession card or if your Concession card has expired, please pay the adult cash fare or use an alternative travel card.

  • Concession cards are not transferable. Please only use your own Concession card.

  • Please only tap your Concession card at the fare reader. Do not tap your wallet or any personal carriers as all stored value travel cards/contactless bank cards detected by the fare reader may be charged. Each card is to be used separately.

  • Please tap your Concession card when you enter and exit the bus or train station, even if you have purchased a concession pass. Otherwise, you may encounter issues when you make a subsequent transfer during your journey.

  • Legal proceedings may be taken if you misuse the card, allow any misuse of the card or breach any of the Terms & Condtions of the use of the Concession card. SBS Transit, SMRT, SLRT, Tower Transit, Go-Ahead Singapore and SimplyGo reserve the right to retain any card deemed necessary for investigation. The Concession card shall be retained if it has been tampered with, misused, replaced or refunded.

  • New tertiary students who are still using the Secondary School Smart Cards for travel on buses and the MRT/LRT will have adult fares deducted from your cards. If you use the Secondary School Smart Card to pay concessionary fares, your concession card may be retained by the Bus Captain/Service Leader for investigation and verification.

  • If your Concession card is retained, please call the SimplyGo Hotline at 1800-2255 663 to check the card status after five working days.
