WHAT IS IT?
The card "Navegante" is a card, personal and intransmissible, equipped with contactless technology that allows the loading of Transportation Tickets of up to four contracts/Transportation Tickets, valid for access to various transportation operators in the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon.
HOW IT WORKS?
The Navegante Card is a "smart card" that has an embedded chip and an antenna, which works by approximation, without contact, to a validator that takes note of the information contained on the chip, thus enabling access to the form of transport.
HOW TO VALIDATE?
Being a contactless card, just pass the Navegante card about 5 inches from the red circle on the validator, which will beep and light up indicating the validation of the ticket (short signal and green indicates that the ticket is valid, if three short beeps and red is emitted, it is not valid). The validator indicates the expiration date of the ticket.
Whatever the transportation ticket / contract loaded, that involves Fertagus, the validation before each trip is mandatory.
HOW TO BUY?
The Navegnate card can be request from any Fertagus Ticket Office by submitting the "Request ID Card for the Lisbon Region Transportation" which is also available at any Fertagus Ticket Office, and has a typical delivery period of 10 days.
The price of the Navegante card for any of the modalities is 7€, except for profiles 4_18 and sub23 which costs 3,50€.
To obtain the card urgently, please contact the Customer Service at the Pragal Station (see the Timetables for delivery requests). The price of the requested card in this mode is 12€, except for profiles 4_18 and sub23 which costs 6€.
