Stations
Tickets and Fares
Riders pay a fee whenever entering the subway and are not charged afterwards until after exiting the system. Transfers between lines are unlimited at no extra cost. As a result, Kaiyang Metro riders must buy and use a Dicard (
All fares that are covered by the Kaiyang Metro use Dicard as a medium, however fares are dependent on what service is being used. Dicards require the Residential Identity Card in order to be bought and reused, and are permanently tied to that person. The only variation of the Dicard that does not require the RIC is the single-use card.
The base fare for all Dicards is 2 Huajiang Yuan and 5 Huajiang Jiao (2园5角; 园2.50), and to register a Dicard is 5 Huajiang Yuan. A single-use card can be purchased for 7 Yuan, and 7-day and 30-day unlimited ride cards can lower per-ride fare. Reduced fares are automatically applied to elderly, disabled and veterans.
