IC cards and payment in detail

Nationwide transport IC cards (the operator sells nimoca) work on all trams. Touch the boarding reader when you get on (middle or rear door) and the reader beside the driver's seat when you get off. With an IC card or contactless credit card, a ride of up to 2 sections costs ¥110 (child ¥60), and a second ride is free when you change trams at a designated transfer stop within 30 minutes; both need a touch when boarding and alighting, one card per person. Cash riders get no transfer. P

ご利用いただけるお支払い方法は、全国相互利用交通系ＩＣカード、クレカ乗車（クレジットカード等）、現金となります。

Getting on

  1. Check the route number and destination shown on the front of the tram.

  3. IC card or contactless credit card: always touch the boarding reader as you get on (needed for the short-ride and transfer discounts).
  4. Cash, one-day ticket or mobile ticket: just board.

Getting off

  1. As your stop approaches, press the stop button (降車ボタン).
  2. Get off through the front door. The fare is flat: adult ¥150, child ¥80, wherever you ride.
  3. IC card or credit card: touch the alighting reader beside the driver's seat.
