Navigo Découverte card

The Navigo Découverte Card is a smart card on which you can store daily, weekly, and monthly passes. The card is nominative and available to everyone. If you want a weekly or monthly pass and aren't a resident in Île-de-France, this is the card for you!

What fares can be placed onto a Navigo Découverte card?

How to get it and how much does it cost?

Go to an information booth in any métro/RER station to buy a new card. The card itself costs 5 euros which is non-refundable and the cost of the pass you wish to load onto it (see above). You'll also need a 3.5 x 4.1 cm photo of your uncovered face.

How to use it?

Tap you Navigo Découverte card on the purple (or blue) card reader when entering a station or when boarding a bus or tramway. You'll need to tap again when you transfer to/from the RER or when you exit the RER. You do not need to tap your card to exit the métro.

To reload your card, go to a ticket machine in a métro/RER/tramway station or use the Bonjour RATP mobile app.

5 Things To Remember On The Métro

5 Things to remember when riding the metro, RER, etc. How frustrating can it be when you get a fine for something you didn't even know about? When most visitors ride for the first time, they get the ticket that seems right to them and hopefully get to their destination. That's until - yeah. They're unable to exit the RER because the ticket they purchased wasn't valid. And later, they get the hefty fine for throwing their paper ticket away earlier. Anyways, here are 5 tips to not end up in a situation like that one. 1. Always keep your ticket with you until you exit the station. Very simple. If a fare inspector comes, just show them your ticket and you're good. And why not keep your paper ticket as a souvenir? In a few years, reloadable plastic cards (Navigo Easy cards) will become mandatory as the single-use paper ticket will become obsolete. 2. T+ tickets (métro tickets) cannot be used on the RER when traveling out of Paris I hear about this mistake all the time.
