SERVICE ALERT :: Unfortunately, BATA’s mobile ticketing vendor Journey has decided to discontinue its operation. BATA is very disappointed with this announcement. What does this mean for riders? The Journey mobile ticketing app will no longer sell passes after June 30. All Journey mobile ticketing passes must be used by July 31. BATA is actively looking for another mobile ticketing option. In the meantime, riders can still pay their fare using cash, fare cards (Zip, Zoom, Commuter) or the credit card payment option inside the BATA Link mobile app. We apologize for this inconvenience. For more information call 231-941-2324 or visit www.bata.net. (Updated: 06.18.25)
