JAM Card

Transport for Ireland alongside TFI operators including Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus, Go-Ahead Ireland, Iarnród Éireann, TFI Local Link and Luas continue the journey to become JAM Card friendly. The Jam Card assists customers using the public transport system and helps make their experience as stress-free as possible.

What is JAM Card and who is it for?

JAM Card allows people with a communication barrier tell others they need ‘Just A Minute’ discreetly and easily.

The JAM Card© was created by NOW Group, a social enterprise that supports people with learning difficulties and autism.

Find out more about the JAM Card© at www.jamcard.org.

There are 3 message options to choose from:

1) Please be patient, I have autism

2) Please be patient, I have a learning disability/difficulty

3) Please be patient, I have a condition

For those with a learning difficulty, autism or any condition where there can be a communication barrier, the JAM Card allows users to relay to others that they may need a little extra time in a simple, effective non-verbal manner. The JAM Card is useful when on public transport, in a retail or any other customer facing environment.

Where can I get one?

There are several different methods to get a JAM Card.

• You can get your JAM Card from the operators below.
• You can also request one directly from NOW Group by visiting the JAM Card website and filling out the request form.
• Or if you would prefer not to use the physical card, there is a JAM Card app available for Android and iOS. The app allows you to choose your message option, leave reviews and find other JAM friendly businesses.
