Tickets can be purchased at TVMs, tram stops, rapid transit points, ticket stands at huge terminals and tobacco shops (TABAC). Most TVMs accept credit cards and coins, and rarely cash. Passing through the turnstile you have to insert the pass into it, then take it back on the other side and keep it. Keep it throughout the ride as you may have your ticket verified by a ticket inspector. Using a card just swipe it over the scanner for 1-2 seconds.
