fare box
Bus payment collector
A fare box is the receptacle on a bus or transit vehicle where passengers deposit their fare—coins, bills, or tickets.
The driver typically sits beside it: She dropped her quarters into the fare box.
Modern fare boxes may accept transit cards or validate passes electronically.
