GO!Durban
Streamlining payments for a seamless and accessible travel experience in Durban.
GO!Durban’s Fare Management system aims to simplify payments for commuters, ensuring affordability and convenience. As of May 2025, the system supports contactless smart cards and mobile app payments, allowing users to tap and go across buses, rail, and integrated cycling services. Fares are structured to be equitable, with discounts for students, seniors, and low-income residents, aligning with eThekwini’s inclusive mobility goals. A single ticket can be used across multiple modes of transport, reducing the need for multiple payments.
The system also employs real-time fare adjustments based on demand and distance, encouraging off-peak travel to reduce congestion. Future enhancements will include integration with national payment systems and loyalty programs for frequent users, further incentivizing public transport use.
This section will soon include fare structures, payment system updates, and user guides. Check back for more.
GO!Durban is the future of Durban. It is the realisation of a safer, sustainable and more liveable city for locals as well as visitors.
