SimplyGo

About SimplyGo (Public Transport): As part of Singapore's public transport payment infrastructure, SimplyGo allows commuters to tap contactless bank cards or mobile wallets directly for bus and MRT fares, alongside the traditional EZ-Link card. Key Features: Contactless Payment: Use a supported bank card or mobile wallet directly, without needing a dedicated transit card. Applies Across the Network: Works for both bus and MRT fare payment throughout Singapore. Automatic Fare Deduction: No need to check or top up a balance — fares are charged directly to your linked payment method. Trip History: Review your travel history and fares through the linked account or app. How to Get Started: Check that your contactless bank card or mobile wallet supports SimplyGo. Tap your card or phone at bus card readers or MRT gates when boarding. Tap out at MRT stations where required to complete the fare calculation. Review your linked account statement for transport charges. Important Notice: If your card isn't SimplyGo-compatible, purchasing an EZ-Link card at any MRT station remains a straightforward alternative that works reliably for visitors.
