Ticket prices tend to be slightly cheaper on the M Ticket—Via Corsica app than purchasing them from the driver.

Tell your driver your destination as you board. That way, they can tell you which stop you should get off at.

The C1 bus connects many parts of Ajaccio, so it might be worth purchasing a booklet of tickets if you plan to get around the area by bus to secure discounted prices.
