This statistic shows the payment methods used in public transit in the United States in 2016. According to the survey, about 30 percent of the mass transit riders paid cash at a physical location (via attendant) for their trip.
Survey was conducted via mobile app polling and targeted active mass transit riders in the nine largest transit markets in the United States: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. . Mass transit transportation categories included subway/light rail, train, bus, boat, car share, bike share and other.
Values may not add to 100 percent due to rounding.
