Bus Card FAQs

Q: What is a Z迂m Bus Card? 
A: Z迂m Bus Cards are plastic cards the size of an ID card. They allow students to quickly and easily tap when getting on or exiting the bus, similar to metro transit passes. Z迂m Bus Cards are uniquely assigned to students and cannot be shared. They have the student*s first name and last initial printed on them to help with identification in case they are misplaced.

Q: How does the Z迂m Bus Card work? 
A: Z迂m Bus Cards use the same contactless RFID technology found in metro transit passes, corporate access cards, and other ID cards. Each Z迂m Bus Card holds a unique code. When tapped on the card reader on a Z迂m Bus, the card wirelessly transmits the unique code to the tablet on the bus, which knows which student is assigned to that code. Z迂m Bus Cards are not GPS devices and cannot be tracked or follow your movements.

Q: Have schools been informed?
A: Yes, your school administrator has been informed about the cards and will be distributing your student*s card.

Q: How should my student use their Z迂m card?
A: Once received, your student should use their card for each ride to swipe-on and swipe-off the bus - a quick tap on the reader and they*re on their way. It*s as simple as that. *Please note, your student(s) CAN ride the bus in the event their card is misplaced, lost, or forgotten and the replacement is being processed.

Q: What should I do if my student loses their Z迂m card or has an invalid Z迂m card?
A: If their card is lost, you or your student can request a replacement card from their school administrator or driver. A new card will arrive at your school within 5-7 business days. Your bus driver will deliver it to your student.

Q: How can you help make this implementation successful?
A: Make sure your student has their card ready to board the bus each morning. If they lose their card, they can request a replacement from your school administrator or driver.
