PHILADELPHIA — The Official SEPTA App has been updated to include the SEPTA Key, giving customers the ability to manage their accounts and purchase fares with the tap of an icon. The Official SEPTA App also provides real-time travel updates, schedules and other tools for customers.

“SEPTA is excited to offer customers the option of managing their Key Card account through the Official SEPTA App,” said SEPTA General Manager Jeffrey D. Knueppel. “Our goal is to bring everything customers need into one convenient app, and this is a major step forward.”

Beta testing for this new feature was successfully completed earlier this summer. Now, all customers have the option of adding their Key Card account information to the Official SEPTA App.
