Manage your Transit Account

Having a Transit account makes it easier to use the app. You can save key information, access new transport services, and never lose your GO points.

Here's what this article covers:

Sign out of your account

  • Tap the gear icon at the top left of the main screen.
  • Scroll down to "Accounts" and tap "Transit account".
  • Note: If you see "Sign in or sign up" under "Accounts", you’re already signed out or have never created an account.

  • Select "Sign out".

Delete your account

If you want to remove your Transit Account and data, you can delete it from inside the app.

Notes:

  • Accounts created when purchasing fares or other services through the app will not be deleted. Please refer to the second part of this section to learn about deleting accounts created with other services.
  • Once you delete your account, all of your saved settings, pinned lines, and payment details will be permanently deleted.
  • Tap the gear icon at the top left of the main screen.
  • Scroll down to "Accounts" and tap "Transit account".
  • Note: If you see "Sign in or sign up" under "Accounts", you’ll need to log in to your account first before requesting a deletion.

  • Select "Delete account" and then "Delete".

You will then receive an email confirming the deletion of your account. If you have accounts with our partners, they will be listed in the email.

When you buy a public transit or bikeshare pass from a partner in Transit, we create an account with that partner so you can access their service. If you wish to delete that account, you’ll need to contact the partner directly about their account deletion policy.

Be sure to include the email address you used to create your Transit account. Some providers require you to send your request from the same email address used to access their services.
