Tokyu Expands Credit Card Touch Payment and QR Code Train Service to All Stations
Tokyu Corporation has expanded its pilot service allowing riders to use credit card touch payment and QR codes to all stations starting January 19.
By December, the service had already been implemented at all stations on the Toyoko Line, Meguro Line, Oimachi Line, Ikegami Line, and Tokyu Tamagawa Line, as well as at Shin-Tsunashima Station on the Tokyu Shin-Yokohama Line, and it has now been extended to all stations on the Kodomonokuni Line as well. However, all stations on the Setagaya Line and Shin-Yokohama Station on the Tokyu Shin-Yokohama Line will not be part of this service.
Starting January 30, digital tickets that bundle ride passes with tickets to use facilities along the line, such as SHIBUYA SKY, SHIBUYA STREAM HOTEL, and Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel, will be sold through the digital ticket service ‘Q SKIP.’
