New digital U-Pass now available for University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) students

Say goodbye to the PRESTO E-Tickets App, say hello to PRESTO in mobile wallet!

Starting May 1, 2025, the digital U-Pass for University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) students is moving to PRESTO vouchers. Each academic term, students will receive a unique voucher code—specific to them—that can be redeemed on a PRESTO card linked to a registered PRESTO account.

The new digital U-Pass available through PRESTO vouchers offer students a faster, more convenient way to ride by using the PRESTO app and loading their U-Pass directly onto a PRESTO card in their mobile wallet. With tap-on access, students can enjoy smoother boarding. Unlike old PRESTO e-tickets that required scanning a QR code, the new system supports the One Fare Program, giving students a 2-hour transfer window between local transit systems—starting with a MiWay bus.

To get access to your new Digital U-Pass, follow the steps below:

  1. Register for a PRESTO card account through the PRESTO app or the web. Watch the video on how to create a PRESTO card account, or click here to create an account. It is recommended for students to create a new account using their UToronto email address (e.g. @mail.utoronto.ca OR @utoronto.ca).
  2. Add a Digital PRESTO card to your phone (Apple or Google) Wallet.
    Once you successfully create a PRESTO account, you can log into the account and add a card to your wallet. This card will be used to redeem your U-Pass voucher code.
  3. Redeem your assigned voucher code under “Redeem Voucher”.
    Your unique U-Pass voucher code will be revealed via the U-Pass Voucher Portal. Students will be required to log in to the U-Pass voucher portal using their UTorID and password to confirm eligibility. Once the unique voucher code is revealed, redeem the code through your registered PRESTO account onto your digital PRESTO card. Watch a video on how to redeem a voucher onto a PRESTO card in mobile wallet.
