What is unirider?

Unirider is a student only bus ticket valid on all Stagecoach and Magic Bus services in Greater Manchester. It's a fantastic way to save money on bus travel whilst you are here in Manchester studying.

The ticket is valid all day and night on the network of buses that can get you to shops, pubs, clubs, gyms, libraries... just remember to take it with you. When you buy a unirider ticket you don't have to budget for a weekly ticket anymore. Just hop on or off any one of our buses anytime.

Once you buy your ticket, it's yours and no-one else's. It must be accompanied by your student ID with your photo on it. You can use it between the two dates printed on the ticket by showing it to the driver with your student card. Please don't lend it to anyone else, this is a personal ticket to you.
