Public transport in Pärnu County has a plastic card system. The same system applies, for example, in Tallinn and Tartu. If there is an analogue card, it will work in Pärnu. The new plastic card costs 2€ and can be purchased from any ticket sales place. When entering the bus it is necessary to validate the card.

A one hour ticket costs 2€, a daily ticket 5€, and a five-day ticket 15€. A daily ticket will be valid if the card is validated three times, a 5 day ticket applies if validated 8 times. It does not have to be done at once. For example, if you travel three different times a day and validate your own card, it automatically becomes a daily ticket.
