How to save on transit fare

  1. Use Beep card, not SJT: Saves ~₱5 per ride. Break-even in 2-3 rides.
  2. Auto-reload: avoid queuing at load counters — use GCash or Maya to top up.
  3. Off-peak windows: 10am-3pm and after 8pm have less crowding, same fare.
  4. Student / senior / PWD discount: 20% off with valid ID. Register your Beep with LRMC/LRTA/DOTr for auto-application.
  5. Multi-modal: combine LRT + bus/jeep vs Grab for long trips — often 60-80% cheaper.

Disclaimer Fares based on 2026 approved rates from DOTr, LRMC (LRT-1), LRTA (LRT-2), MRTC/DOTC (MRT-3), and PNR. Actual fares may vary slightly due to periodic adjustments, senior/student/PWD discounts (20%), promo periods, and route-specific rules. PNR service coverage changes during Metro Manila Subway and NSCR construction phases. Beep card fare is 5-10 pesos cheaper than Single Journey Ticket. Verify with station personnel or the official DOTr/LRMC website for the exact current fare on your specific route.
