Why does the PATH Ticket Vending Machine display “Remaining card balance: $0.00?

The “remaining card balance” refers to the amount of stored dollar, or cash, value on your SmartLinkSM Card. Since the PATH system does not accept stored dollar value for fare payment, only the number of “Trips Left” and/or “Unlimited Pass” (with expiration date) noted on the screen are applicable to your card. It is best to check your card balance using a PATH vending machine or through a PATH SmartLinkSM Card Web Account.
