Register your cOnnect Pass Transit Card

Protect your cOnnect Pass balance by registering your cOnnect Pass transit card online. If your card is lost or stolen, registered cards can be replaced and your balance will be transferred to your new card.

Replacing your cOnnect Pass Transit Card

Orillia Transit is not responsible for any lost or stolen cOnnect Pass transit cards. The cOnnect Pass transit card is considered final sale, and should be treated like cash. A one-time free replacement of the cOnnect Pass transit card can only be issued if the cOnnect Pass transit card has been registered online. Without having the cOnnect Pass transit card registered, a replacement cOnnect Pass transit card with your balance cannot be issued, and a new cOnnect Pass transit card must be purchased. 

Registered cOnnect Pass transit cards can be replaced by requesting one online at "Use Transit" and under the Transit Accounts tab, click "Report Card Lost or Stolen". In-person replacement cards are completed by visiting:

  • Orillia City Centre (50 Andrew St. S.)

FAQ's

How will I know when my cOnnect Pass transit card is low or expiring?

  • When you register your cOnnect Pass transit card, you can manage your balance online or you can require a printout of your remaining balance directly from the bus driver.

Can my cOnnect Pass transit card automatically be topped up?

  • Authorize your cOnnect Pass account to automatically top up your account using your credit card when it goes below a minimum balance of choice at "Use Transit" and under the Transit Accounts tab, click "Auto Reload". By choosing the autoload option, you can set your minimum balance and how much to increase so when your account goes below the minimum, funds will be automatically added and charged to your credit card. 

What if I forget my password?

  • You can reset your password on your transit account by going to "Use Transit". You will be required to have your email address that you registered the card with.
Orillia Transit Transfers

Orillia Transit passengers can transfer routes at any point where two routes connect. Passengers must request a transfer when boarding the bus if a transfer is required along the route. For transit riders using the cOnnect Pass transit card, passengers must tap the cOnnect Pass transit card on the card reader machine located at the transit vehicle door, and the transfer request will directly take place on the cOnnect Pass transit card. For transit riders who would like to pay by cash, a transfer ticket will be provided.

An Orillia transfer is valid for 45 minutes from the time of issue and is valid as part of one continuous trip from origin to destination. Transfers are non-transferable and have no cash value
