To get the card, you'll need to spend a minimum of $25 up front.
Wow...really? That's fine for commuters and most other Toronto residents too I would guess, but that seems to be a bit steep for tourists, many of whom may be here for only two or three days and only take the subway a few times.
Edit: After checking the presto website myself, I'm also not a huge fan of the fact that the cards cost $5...again, probably fine for Toronto residents, but maybe a bit steep for tourists here for a few days. Do the cards really cost anywhere near $5 to produce? I know it's an RFID card, but I still can't imagine that it would cost anywhere near that much to produce the card (and print it, and transport it to the card selling place, etc).
