What is money?

We decided to delve in to the world of the electronic wallet... and beyond!

Where did the time go?
There are very good reasons why we decided to stop using the bus readers as a clock. When we were designing the new interface, we spoke to lots of people about what they really wanted in terms of useful information.

Updates to the Snapper Display Messages
In April this year we updated the Snapper system on the bus to make boarding the bus even faster and to make the messages and sounds that you hear more useful. This month we are rolling out the next phase of the on-bus updates. This time you will see the changes in the display messages on the Snapper reader.

Red Snapper v Green Snapper
The Snapper Green and Snapper Mini.Jr are for all children under the age of 11. When used on all GO Wellington, Airport Flyer, Valley Flyer and Runcimans buses, these green Snappers automatically apply a child concession fare, plus the additional discount for using Snapper.
From the age of eleven, children must use a standard Snapper, such as the Snapper Red, Snapper Sprat or Snapper Mini. The “raw” Snapper comes pre-programmed to charge an adult fare. However, we’re able to write the user’s date of birth to these, which in the case of 11 to 17 year olds who are in full time education, entitles them to the same child fare concession as a green Snapper.
