EZ-Link

Transport

EZ-Link is a stored-value contactless card widely used to pay for public transport in Singapore, including MRT trains and public buses, by tapping at fare readers. You top up the card at stations, machines or apps, and fares are deducted per trip based on distance. It can also be used at some shops and for other everyday payments. Alongside EZ-Link, commuters can now also tap using contactless bank cards or mobile wallets through the SimplyGo system to pay fares directly. Card types, fare structures and payment options are subject to the latest rules.
