Virtual TAP cards can be used to pay fares in the LA Metro system.The instructions for adding fares are not very clear. You probably need to first register a plastic TAP card to the app.
2. How do I register a plastic TAP card to my account using the TAP app?
  • In the Cards section, press (“add card” icon) in the top left.
  • Press “Register a TAP card.”
  • Enter your TAP card number.
  • Give your card a nickname and press “Register.”
  • Your card will display in the Cards section of the TAP app.
5. How do I add fare to a TAP card on my phone using the TAP app?
  • In the Cards section, select the TAP card to which you want to add fare.
  • Press “Add Stored Value or Pass.”
  • Enter a Stored Value amount or select a pass and press “Add to Cart.”
  • Choose a payment method and press “Purchase.” Your fare may take a few seconds to display.
