If you don’t have the documents present at the time of application we recommend you wait until you can provide a copy before completing the application. If you don’t have any of the documents at all, there is an option of uploading non-standard documents for verification. This process can take up to 3 weeks, may require face-to-face verification and does not guarantee final application approval.
You can apply for a personalised card up to 2 weeks before your birthday, i.e. 19 yr – 2weeks for a Young Adult (19-23). Your card will expire on your birthday, i.e. your 24th birthday for a Young Adult (19-23). For a Student (24 yr +), customers need to be in full-time education
Young Adult and Student Leap single fares are up to 50% cheaper than Adult Leap fares. This is on top of the 20% reduction that adults are receiving.
All TFI Leap enabled routes get Leap discounts when using a TFI Leap Card.
The Young Adult card (19-23) eligibility is defined by age, so all customers in that age bracket are eligible regardless of educational status.
Student eligibility, i.e. full-time status, needs to be verified in person at Student Leap Agent
Student Cards are only applicable to people who are 24 years old and over. 18 year olds are eligible for a Child Card (16-18) until their 19th birthday. Then, when they’re turning 19, they will qualify for a Young Adult Card (19-23)
