My family and I recently bought into the target bus card. A normal bus fare around the villamartin area should cost €1.55 per person per journey Using the Tarjeta Bus card it costs €0.60 per person per journey. Does anyone know if the Tarjeta Bus Card can be used outside the Villamartin Area

Yes you can use on any Avanza bus. I used it on Saturday to go from La Zenia into Torrevieja and it was also only 60 cents.
I have been told it can be used on airport bus etc and it gives a discount but not sure how much as we haven’t used it that far

The card itself costs €2 and your first top up must be €20. So if you get on any avanza bus and give over the €22 and ask for carte de boleta they will give you the card with €20 loaded on. Each time you then use it (and same card can be used to pay for any amount of passengers) the amount left is detailed on your ticket
Hope this helps

Thank you for that; yes, most helpful.
Do you happen to know if any given credit has an effective expiry date ie if it had €15 left on it, could that be used many months ahead?

Is the Avanza bus card the same as the card we recently bought around Villamartin. It has on it Tarjeta Bus. Is it also valid on Avanza Bus

It doesn’t give an expiry date on the tickets so not sure-will try and find out and update

Yes.
Hello,
Do you know whether this card could be bought on line as a virtual card?
TIA
