This is the first distance-based fare implementation of the smart card in buses, thereby applying the “tap in-tap out” scheme. Passengers are required to tap their beep card twice—upon boarding and before getting off the bus. The bus route that travels through the C5 road and McKinley Hill costs P39 pesos. The buses are equipped with global positioning system (GPS) to determine the location of the stop. Citylink’s C5 route buses operate from Mondays to Saturdays with trips as early as 6 A.M.
