ORCA, the Puget Sounds all-in-one transit card is now available for purchase and reloading at more stores. Beginning this month with the addition of Fred Meyer, more stores will be added on an ongoing basis, eventually doubling the number of locations and adding more availability at locally owned businesses.
ORCA cards will continue to be available at participating QFC, Safeway and Albertsons. Retailers will also begin rolling out new black ORCA cards for purchase today. They are also available at transit vending machines, online and at customer service locations.
What customers need to know:
Most customers dont need a new card. Classic blue and Regional Reduced Fare Permit (RRFP) cards will continue to work on transit, at vending machines, online at myORCA.com, with the myORCA app and at transit agency customer service locations.
Customers can still reload their blue ORCA card at many stores. See which stores will continue to reload blue cards by visiting info.myORCA.com/retail.
