The GoRaleigh UMO Challenge

UMO is the fare-payment system for all GoRaleigh and GoTriangle buses. When riders use a GoRaleigh bus they can pay for that trip using either a physical transit card or through their smartphone.

To encourage more riders to try out GoRaleigh this January, Commute Smart Raleigh will offer a prize each to the top 3 riders at the end of January based on total trips taken on a GoRaleigh bus.

Every "swipe" using an UMO fare payment media will count towards your final total trips. Only trips taken January 1 - January 31 will be eligible to count towards your final score.

To download the UMO app please visit umomobility.com.It is free to download and install the app and is compatible with Android and iPhone operating systems.

To receive a physical transit card, you can visit GoRaleigh Station in downtown Raleigh. The first card is free; however, successive cards are $2 each.
