Exo services operate within the [[Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain]] (ARTM)'s [[Integrated ticketing|integrated fare structure]] for [[Greater Montreal]], which manages its fare schedule and fare zones.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://exo.quebec/en/fares/fare-reform |title=Fare reform |website=Exo |access-date=2024-12-10}}</ref>

In 2022 the ARTM began a multi-year program of updating and simplifying the fare schedule. Through this process, and as the [[Réseau express métropolitain]] replaced some train and bus services, certain legacy fares were retained and new transitional fares were created, with the objective of slowly raising prices over time to match the simplified fare structure and then ultimately be phased out &mdash; a process called {{lang|fr|lissage}} (smoothing).<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.artm.quebec/financer/refonte-tarifaire/ |title=Refonte tarifaire |language=fr |trans-title=Fare reform |website=Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain |access-date=2024-12-10}}</ref> As of July 2024, [[Exo commuter rail#Fares|Exo commuter rail]] and [[Exo bus services#Fares|certain bus sectors]] still have these unique fares.<ref name="fare-schedule-2024">{{Cite web|url=https://www.artm.quebec/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/ARTM_Grille_tarifaire_TC_EN.pdf | title=Fare schedule: Public transit.
