Top up your Opal card

Check your balance

Your Opal card balance shows how much money you have left on your card. 

When you tap on or off with your Opal card, the card reader will show your balance.

You can also check the balance on your Opal card:

• at a top up machine (found at most transport hubs)
• at an Opal card seller
• on the Opal Travel app
• online.

When the balance is low, you need to top up your Opal card.
