MTA E Tix How To Use The App
MetroNorth now allows you to buy Tickets on your Phone but you dont know how to use
it thankfully I have done it plenty of times and I will show you how to do it its
pretty simple Actually
First Step is to download the app
If you have a Iphone go to the Apple Itunes store and type in MTA E Tix and then
when it comes up hit Install
If you have a Android go to the Google Play store and type in MTA E Tix then when
It comes up hit Install
The ticket app works the same way as the Ticket Machine so when you go to the App
Select the Station that your going to then select your Destination
then to pay select the Debit Card option and put your CC Number info in and your
Security code then hit submit and your Ticket as long as it goes through your CC
ok it should say Submitted If you dont want to Enter your Card everytime I recommend
Registering for a MTA E Tix Account you have the option of doing that
How To Activate the Ticket ?
When it comes to going on your Train Activate your Ticket just before Boarding so
right as the Train comes go to the MTA E Tix App go to your Ticket Wallett Select
your Ticket hit Activate Ticket a Confirmation Message will pop up asking are you
sure hit Activate and it will be Activated
Do NOT Activate your Ticket Until its time for Boarding Reason being is Tickets have
a Timer on it most Tickets will only be Activated for about an Hour or so or what
ever the Predetermined Length is and it will Vary based on how many Stops you have
to your Destination If you Activate it before its time you risk the Ticket expiring
if that happens you will have to Re Purchase your Ticket again
