Mind asking what is the meaning in celebrating st david day have to do with this paying ticket ?
Ceisiwr is Welsh, and St. David is the patron saint of Wales. Nothing really to do with tickets, but St. David would probably approve of honesty.

I guess the kind of kamma that keeps you uneasy while traveling, and when trying to meditate and who knows what other consequences.

It's better to give. It's more important to be attentive to give away a ticket to anyone in need of a ride.

I'm not judging OP. The transport company should allow paying the full ride with the app.

Diolch!
“Knowing that this body is just like foam,
understanding it has the nature of a mirage,
cutting off Māra’s flower-tipped arrows,
one should go beyond the King of Death’s sight.”
