To skip the queue, book your call number in advance through the app

When issued, the electronic card is “empty” and should be charged with your chosen travel card. You can top up your card with a monthly pass or an annual pass: 

1. At automatic machines inside metro stations 
2. At any tobacconist’s or newsstand that sells transportation tickets 
3. Online on the ATM website or on the ATM app and then on the dedicated machine next to the metro turnstiles

To travel within the urban area of Milano (Mi1 zone) you can choose from these 4 options: 

• monthly pass for under 27: € 22 (valid for unlimited journeys during the month of validity) 
• annual pass for under 27: € 200 (valid for unlimited journeys for one year) 
• ordinary monthly pass: € 39 (valid for unlimited journeys during the month of validity) 
• ordinary annual pass: € 330 (valid for unlimited journeys for one year) 

An Urban Travel Card allows you to ride across the whole ATM urban transportation network (within the borders of the city), as well as the urban portion of the S suburban railway lines (Trenord and Passante Ferroviario) departing from Cadorna, Garibaldi, Porta Venezia, and other underground stations. 

Metro stations within the urban fare limits: Molino Dorino and Sesto Marelli on line M1, Cascina Gobba and Famagosta on line M2. 

In order to reach the suburban areas from Milano city centre, a suburban pass must be purchased depending on the number of zones travelled (from Mi1 up to Mi9 zones). Go to ATM Fare System website and select Zones and fares tables from the menu to see all the travel passes available (annual or monthly passes for young people under 26; weekly, monthly or annual ordinary passes). 

At the start of your journey and every time you change the vehicle you should tap your card on the electronic card reader at ticket barriers in the metro stations or on board of buses and trams.

To obtain a new card please go to an ATM Point with valid ID. 

• If your card is stolen you should report it to the police and show the report at the ATM counters.
• If you lose your card you will need to fill in a lost card declaration form available at ATM Points and hand it to ATM staff.  

In both cases, there is a charge of 15€ for the issue of a new card.  

Use the app to get live updates on the transportation network status, and to grab your call number for the ATM Point counters to get your pass. 

To book your call number for a new card, click on the "ATM Point" button, then choose "Ordinary services", "New card request", choose date and time slot, and confirm until you get your ticket. Show up some minutes in advance at the ATM point, skip the queue and your number will appear on the call screens at the time of the booking.

You can use the app to book a line ticket also for other operations, listed in the "type of appointment " menu, e.g. buying a replacement card in case of loss or theft.
