Trip Apps
At LYNX our goal is to provide our customers with the best transit service in Central Florida. That's why we are implementing the latest and greatest technology to make our customer's experience even better!
Take a look at all the technology enhancements we are currently working on, including a new and improved mobile fare payment application.
LYNX® Paw Pass
The new and improved LYNX® Paw Pass mobile application, powered by Genfare, along with the upgraded farebox system, is now available for download.
Whether you’re purchasing a Single-Ride, All-Day pass, 7-Day pass, or 30-Day pass, you can easily buy and store it on your mobile device. Simply activate your ticket when you're ready to use it, and scan the barcode on the glass window on the farebox. No need to choose your Link in the new app!
After Nov. 30, you won’t be able to purchase tickets through the old app. But don’t worry—if you have passes or stored value in the current app, you can still use them until Jan. 25, 2025. Please note that tickets purchased in the old app cannot be transferred to the new app.
The new LYNX® Paw Pass app offers a fresh new look, along with helpful features like trip planning and real-time bus arrival times for your stop. Look up your stop under "Routes" and click the heart and save it as a favorite to put it at the top of the list under "Real Time Arrivals".
To pay your fare, simply scan the QR code on the app at the farebox scanner—no need for operators to manually validate mobile tickets anymore. If you’re using a reduced fare, don’t forget to show your LYNX-issued ID.
