Buy or Renew your York Card

If you are a new customer, you can purchase a York Card online – simply click on any of the BUY CARD buttons to start your purchase.

Existing customers can login to access their account and renew their card via the Login to your York Card link at the top right-hand corner of the website. The username required will be the final 6 digits on your current York Card. The option to change this is available on the login page.

It is possible to purchase or renew a physical York Card at your local Explore library or Reading Cafe if you prefer. Please note the ‘Work in York’ Card is not currently available to purchase online – please visit an Explore library to purchase.
