Youth Myki

From 1 January 2026, public transport is now free for children aged between 6 and 17 years. To access free travel, all young people need to carry a Youth myki card and tap on and off each time they travel.

Tapping on and off

Students must tap on and off every time they use their myki on public transport, even if they have a Youth myki.

How to Purchase

Youth myki can be purchased for $5 online via the Transport Victoria Website (link is below) or from a staff station or the PTV Hub.

• Youth myki cards purchased online will be registered to the customer and will expire when they turn 18.

• Youth myki cards purchased in person from a staffed station or the PTV Hub aren't registered and will expire in 4 years. For a list of staff stations and their operating hours, visit the link below:
