Yes, it does – journeys on bus and tram are now included in daily and weekly capping. For example, journeys on Edinburgh Trams in the City Zone are included in the City DAY cap and journeys to/from the Airport Zone are included in the NETWORK cap. All journeys on Edinburgh Trams are included in the City WEEK cap.
Please remember of Tap On and Tap Off when travelling on Edinburgh Trams - tap your contactless card or device at a Platform Validator before you board a tram and when you leave a tram.
If you have Tapped On and don’t Tap Off when you leave the tram, you’ll be charged the maximum fare of £7.90 – so please remember to Tap Off! We know mistakes can happen, please contact our Customer Service team with any queries.
Ticketing Service Assistants will still be working on the trams, and they will tap your card again on their handheld devices to do an inspection tap. If you have not tapped on, you will not be considered to have a valid ticket and will automatically be charged the onboard penalty fare of £10.
Penalty fares, including the fare for a card not being tapped off, will not be included in daily or weekly capping.
