The Ohmer fare register was, in various models, a mechanical device for registering and recording the fares of passengers on streetcarsbuses and taxis in the early 20th century. It was invented and improved by members and employees of the Ohmer family of Dayton, Ohio, especially John F. Ohmer who founded the Ohmer Fare Register Company in 1898. The company received patents in 1904 and 1927.
