if you are visiting a city and you are exclusively using the bus, in 2 or 3 travels the card pays itself for not dealing with coins and physical money... you can literally buy them in 5 minutes, no need to have a CPF exposed or whatever [they are called TOURIST CARDS for a reason]

around Paraty -> Angra dos Reis region you can literally visit/stop in more than 25 beach spots with the buses who circulate that area

and it's really nice that it helps the bus drivers. it even saves some time on embarking, which can add up in longer routes. godspeed on a single card (state agnostic) for the entire public transportation system (metro, bus, trains) in Brazil
