Passengers who don't have the time to buy tickets over the telephone or visit a Greyhound station can book their trips online and then print out tickets in the comfort of their home. Printed ticket customers will need a valid email address for ticket confirmation purposes, as well as a valid ID to board the bus.
Travelers wanting to catch the next bus out of town or buy advanced tickets, can do so at nationwide Greyhound terminals. At some locations, passengers can use the easy self-service kiosks to purchase tickets, or buy from a Greyhound attendant. Proper ID is required, and Greyhound accepts debit cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover and AmEx. Money orders are not acceptable forms of payment for Greyhound tickets.
If you're wanting to surprise someone with a Greyhound trip as a gift, the company has created non-refundable Gift Ticket Orders, which can be purchased for your family and friends. The recipient needs a valid ID to collect the ticket, and purchases can be made online, by telephone, or at a station booth.
