By giving a loved one a gift card from the Société de transport de l’Outaouais (STO), you are enabling this person to ride for free on our buses for the value of the card, once the value has been loaded onto a Multi smart card.

This is a very useful gift that is greatly appreciated, especially by students and seniors, because the gift card is:

• Original and environmentally friendly;
• Practical and easy to use.

• The STO gift card is not a transit pass. It is therefore not an accepted fare payment method on our vehicles.
• Recipients of a gift card must therefore load the value of the pass on a Multi card at one of our 3 service points or at our issuing and recharging centre.

The gift card is available throughout the year and lets you give someone the value of a monthly pass for a regular, express or interzone bus route at the different fares offered: basic, student or senior. 

Recipients of a gift card who are new riders on the system will need to get a Multi card for $8, taxes included, since the pass is loaded onto the card.

The gift card is available at one of the 3 service points and can be recharged at the same locations or at our issuing and recharging centre.
