Adult Octopus Cards


In the large photo, they are 3 different versions of Octopus cards for Adults. The top one is the First Edition (首創版). The middle one is the Second Edition and the bottom one is the Third Edition. The small photo shows other editions which have variations!






The design of the Octopus cards is simple indeed. The designer uses a numeral "8". To the passengers, now customers too, the Octopus Cards are their Electronic money. They like this system of paying for their fares when they travel on buses, MTR and KCR trains, ferries, minibuses, …because they do not have to carry coins with them. Nowadays, people of Hong Kong can use them to buy food or things from fast-food shops, supermarkets, 7-11 shops, Circle K shops, ……

There is a good piece of news that our Octopus cards can be used in taking the trains in the Shenzhen subway system in the near future!
