Every year, on 1 July, the MyCiTi fares are adjusted as part of the City of Cape Town’s annual budget process, taking into account the latest cost projections for providing services over the year ahead.

The fares also make provision for changes during the financial year based on significant changes to the cost of diesel in order to protect passengers from paying too much if the cost of diesel is reduced, and protecting the City from ongoing losses if the cost of diesel continues to increase significantly.

Here is a summary of the new fares and tariffs that take effect on 1 July 2025:
