Smart Card
Laketran is no longer selling Smart Cards for our fareboxes. If you currently have a Smart Card, you can continue to add value to it at the farebox or in-person by bringing the Smart Cart to Laketran at 555 Lakeshore Blvd. in Painesville Twp. Customers can also purchase Value Cards or create an EZfare account as two additional pre-payment options. In 2025, Laketran will have a new Smart Card compatible with EZfare and the on-board validators.
