IC cards and payment in detail

PiTaPa, ICOCA, Kitaca, Suica, PASMO, TOICA, manaca, SUGOCA, Hayakaken and nimoca are accepted. Eizan does not sell IC cards. At unstaffed stations touch the IC card reader on the platform/station before boarding and the reader on the train when you get off; if the card has no boarding or alighting record you pay cash. One card per person; no combining with other tickets; IC cards cannot pay a fare adjustment for another ticket, and cannot be used when the system is down. P

叡山電車では交通系ICカードの全国相互利用サービスに対応しておりPiTaPaの他、ICOCA、Kitaca、Suica、PASUMO、TOICA、manaca、SUGOCA、はやかけん、nimocaの各カードがご利用になれます。
