The Sapporo City Transportation Bureau will start accepting ride payments using contactless payment methods such as credit cards from spring 2025.
This service will be implemented in collaboration with the City of Sapporo, Sumitomo Mitsui Card, Visa Worldwide Japan, JCB, Nippon Signal, and QUADRAC.
All 46 stations will be covered, allowing passengers to board and alight by simply touching their card or smartphone against a newly installed dedicated reader at the gates. Supported brands include Visa, JCB, American Express, Diners Club, Discover, and UnionPay, with Mastercard to be added in due course.
