Stored Value Travel Cards (Non-Concession)

The convenient Adult Stored Value Travel Card (Non-Concession) is a contactless stored value smartcard that can be used for fare payment on buses, the MRT and LRT.

Please click here for the Conditions of Issue and Use for Stored Value Travel Cards.

How to Use

You will need at least $3 in your stored value travel card before you can start your journey on the MRT/LRT. This ensures that you have enough in your card to pay the required fare when exiting the faregates, even for the longest journey.

For travelling on bus services, you will need to have enough stored value to cover the cost of travel from your boarding point to the last stop on that bus service route. If you are unsure of the minimum required amount, we recommend that you have at least $3 in your card for basic bus services.

To ensure that your card is read properly by the card reader upon entry and exit, please:

  1. Take out and tap only the intended card at the card reader, especially if you have more than one card in your wallet, handbag, purse, etc.; and
  2. Avoid attaching any metallic object to your card, e.g. keys, coins.

Card Top-Up 

You can top up your card through any of the following channels:

The minimum amount that you can top up is $2 by cash and $10 by e-payment (NETS/Credit/Debit Card). Please note that the card can only store up to a maximum value of $500.

Please use the exact amount when paying with cash at selected Top-Up Kiosks as they do not accept coins or issue change.

Card Faulty

Proceed to the nearest SimplyGo Ticket Office to get the card checked.

If the card is found to be faulty, we will issue you with a replacement card. The $5 card cost for the replacement card will be waived. A minimum top-up of $5 is required to activate the replacement card for use on public transport.

All EZ-Link cards and NETS FlashPay cards that are found to be faulty within five years from date of issue will be replaced with a new one, so long as SimplyGo Pte Ltd has assessed that the cards have not been tampered with, intentionally damaged or carelessly handled.
