Only $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100 cards available after $2 cards ran out because of high demand.

Vodafone Fiji wishes to advise members of the public that due to an unusually high demand of $2 disposable cards in December, it is currently out of stock on $2 eticketing disposable cards.

However, the company still has e-ticketing disposable cards available in $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100 denominations for the members of the public.

Vodafone Fiji is working closely with the company’s suppliers to have $2 cards delivered ASAP and at the latest by January 25.

The disposable cards were meant to cater for emergencies and one-off travel on the buses and to cater for visitors and tourists.

All Fijian citizens are still able to register and collect a permanent eTransport card for free, which they can top up for as low as $2 and use on a regular basis.

Vodafone Fiji has so far issued close to 1.1 million permanent eTransport cards for a population of 840, 000 people.

It is assumed that almost everyone in Fiji should now have access to the permanent eTransport card.

The public are urged to top up and use their permanent cards and not rely on disposable cards.

The non-availability of $2 disposable cards does not entitle commuters to a free trip.
