Overview

CM Punjab T-Cash Card is a rechargeable smart banking card designed to streamline fare payments across various modes of intra-city public transport in Punjab. It enables hassle-free travel on Metro Buses, Orange Line Trains, Speedo Buses, Electro Buses and other integrated transit services throughout the province. Commuters can easily deposit funds into the card and use it to purchase tickets while eliminating the need for cash transactions.
