Iași has modern buses and trams in almost all areas of the city. Tickets can be bought either in the main transit stations during working hours at the counter and the automatic payment machines, inside the buses using the self-pay devices by card (contactless too) or by sms using the 24Pay official app. All tickets are available both on trams and buses.
The persons found in the means of transport without a valid travel card can pay on the spot a so-called “special travel fare”, amounting to 50 lei (10 Euros), based on a receipt issued by the controllers. If you don’t pay this, you will have to be fined the full amount.
