Using Clipper on BART

Clipper is now available to all BART customers. Whether you use a High Value Discount (HVD) ticket or pay as you go, Clipper can be used to pay your fare on BART.

To use Clipper on BART, locate the Clipper sensor disk on the top of the fare gate or on the side of the accessible fare gate. Tag your card by holding the card flat to the Clipper logo on the sensor disk until "OK" displays and the fare gate opens. At this time, your remaining balance will also be displayed. You will tag your card each time you enter and exit the fare gates.

Please note: even if the fare gate is open when you approach, make sure to tag your card before entering.

Please note that Clipper is not accepted for parking payment, so customers will need to continue to pay for parking as they do now.
