Effective: May 22, 2026


The CATS-Pass app has gotten some updates to make your transit experience as seamless as possible!

What's new? We’ve made your checkout experience more secure and reliable, and we changed the color of the 'Report a Problem to CATS' button so it’s easier to find. Plus, you can now track your ride live from start to finish using the trip planner. This is complete with real-time location details and notifications.

Planned trip within CATS pass app that departs at 9:40 am and rides route 14 and the 501 
Three notifications from the CATS pass app on an iPhone lock screen stating walk 2 min, get off at Transit Center, Get on 14

Please note, the update within the app has cleared all previously saved payment options. You will need to re-enter your payment card information.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we complete this upgrade!
