Transit
FlixBus runs an expanding green-branded intercity bus network across the US and Europe, often undercutting rail on price. Tickets generally code as transit or ground transportation and earn on cards with a transit category bonus, otherwise at flat-rate. A card that treats buses and other ground transit as a bonus category is the best fit for regular riders.
