Do I have to tag a Clipper card reader every time I ride Caltrain?
If you have a Caltrain Monthly Pass loaded on your Clipper Card, you must tag on and off during your first Caltrain ride of the month to make sure the zones you travel in match the zones loaded on your monthly pass.
If you ride Caltrain using 8-ride ticket loaded onto your Clipper card, you will need to tag on and tag off every time you ride Caltrain unless you are transferring to a connecting Caltrain train in the same direction. When you tag your Clipper card at the start and end of every Caltrain ride it ensures that you’re charged the correct amount.
