When using a credit card to pass the gate, is the ticket sensor area at the metro gate similar to the electronic ticket sensor area? When using a credit card or an electronic ticket to go through the metro gate, there are two different areas on which to place your card or ticket. Holders of a credit card, kindly place it on the " Bank Card Contactless ", while if you hold an electronic ticket, place it on the "IC Card and Single-Journey Ticket Token Sensor". Refer to the illustration for details.
Only VISA, Mastercard, JCB Contactless Credit Cards (and Debit Cards) and UnionPay Card with icon printed on their surface can be used on the sensor to pass the metro gate.
NFC-enabled mobile devices (such as mobile phones, smartwatches, etc.). binding credit cards can also be used.
What if I want to use the function of a co-branded credit card to pass the metro gate and accidentally touch it on the electronic ticket sensor? Please present your co-branded credit card at the Station Information Counter and the station staff will assist in processing.
Contactless physical credit cards: The same credit card is required to enter and exit the gate.
Use of NFC-enabled mobile devices and mobile payment application services (such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, etc.): Use of the same mobile device and application services (same bound credit card) for entry and exit gates.
When using a credit card to pass the gate, please use the credit card dedicated access gate at each station. Refer to the illustration below for details.
