For single-trip and stored-value ticket holders, fares are calculated according to distance, but adult, student, senior passes for limited or unlimited train rides are also available. Next to the magnetic fare cards, which require replacement once every two years, the Skytrain has adopted near-field contactless technology in its ticketing system, with the intent of becoming compatible with the system presently used in the MRT.
In May 2012, the new stored-value ticket called Rabbit Card was launched. Rabbit Card is a brand new electronic payment card system that allows holders to pay for the fee of BTS and BRT with only one card. Rabbit Cards can also be used to pay for other services and restaurants that are associated with BTS, for example, McDonald's, Burger King, Starbucks, and others.
