Formerly known as RTC, the Clipper Access discount card entitles qualified persons with disabilities aged 64 and under to a reduced fare on fixed-route transit systems throughout Solano County and the San Francisco Bay Area. You can load value and passes on your Clipper Access card. This one card makes it simple and easy to travel on all types of transit including the bus, BART, and ferry.

When you receive your Clipper Access card, you will be immediately eligible for reduced fares on all participating transit systems. No additional proof of eligibility is required, but you must show the Clipper Access card at the time you pay the fare.
Applications for the Clipper Access card are accepted at San Francisco Bay Area transit agency locations and forwarded to a central office. The Central Processor then reviews and verifies applicant information and prepares a card that is printed and mailed by the Clipper program.
If you are 65 years of age or older, you qualify for a Senior discount, which is the same discount offered by the Clipper Access card. If you are a Senior and have a qualifying disability, you will not be issued a new or renewal Clipper Access card. The application process for a Senior Clipper card is easier and quicker than for the Clipper Access card, and the Senior card does not need to be renewed.
The Clipper Access Program no longer issues cards to seniors. The Senior Clipper card offers the same features and discounts. You can obtain a Senior Clipper card at your local transit agency. The card is free and does not expire.
