New Jersey Transit riders no longer need to use a credit or debit card to purchase electronic fares on the NJ Transit mobile app. Instead, these fares can be purchased with cash at more than 1,000 stores. The alternative payment method, rolled out last week, aims to expand access to people without bank accounts and reduce the number of paper bus, train and light rail tickets. The first 2,000 people to utilize the feature will receive a $5 credit toward NJ Transit tickets and passes within 30 days of signing up for the app.
