Tokyo Metro Introduces Ride Service via Credit Card Touch and QR Code from March 22

Tokyo Metro will begin a ride service via credit card touch and QR code from 10:00 AM on March 22.

This service will apply to the Tokyo Metro 24-hour ticket, and can be used by tapping it on the automatic ticket gate reader. At stations without readers, station staff will verify the tickets.

The touch payment option is set for adults only, while the QR code can be used for both adults and children. Both require advance purchase and can be used on any chosen day within 90 days of purchase from the website. Users must press the “Start Use” button before using. The price is 700 yen for adults and 350 yen for children.

The post-payment ride service via credit card touch payment is being considered to address specific fare calculation issues, such as transfers outside ticket gates.
