What is E-purse?
E-purse stands for electronic purse and acts as cash for your bus, train or ferry ride. When you tap your card at an ORCA card reader the fare is deducted from your E-purse. You can store between $5 and $300 on your E-purse. The minimum E-purse value you can add is $5. The E-purse can also be used in combination with a pass when your pass value is less than the fare for the bus or train ride.
