Check if you qualify

If you are aged 5 to 15, you can buy child tickets for travel on Metrolink.

If you are aged 11 to 15, you will need proof of age ID to buy child tickets.

An igo card allows you to buy child tickets for longer, up to 31 August after your 16th birthday. An igo card is also a convenient way to have proof of age and it entitles you to cheaper tickets on buses.
