Opinions about Bus Fares in Granada
Deposit and credit card payments
clasificacion de 5 estrellas
Some slight updates to this page (which was very helpful!), as someone who just arrived in Granada on June 5th, 2024. The Credibus card cost an additional 2 euros for the card itself (so I paid 7 euros for a 5-euro card).

Also you should note on the page that the driver only accepts cash for the Credibus card, not credit card, BUT they are able to give change (which is not always the case for some cities’ buses). I bought the card with a 20-euro bill and there was no issue.
