The expansion includes the Raritan Valley Line, which serves Fanwood Station.

Passengers can receive a free card when loading an eligible ticket or pass at an NJ Transit ticket vending machine or ticket office.

Conductors scan the card during travel. Registered cards also provide protection if a card is lost or stolen.
