No. You cannot use your TransitChek QuickPay Card to make purchases at any of these non-transit operator locations or businesses. While any number of non-transit operated businesses may sell transit passes or tickets, such as MetroCards, PATH QuickCards, bus or ferry tickets, you can only use the TransitChek QuickPay Card at transit operated ticket vending machines, ticket windows, or at sales locations that sell only transit passes or tickets. This is to ensure that the program is fully compliant with IRS regulations.
