Octopus cards are handy value cards that you can use for all public transport in Hong Kong. You can use it to get on subways, buses, minibuses, and trams. You can even use the card to ride the MTR regional rail and travel to China. You can also use this card to pay for purchases from cafes, fast food restaurants, convenience stores, supermarkets, and pharmacies. An Octopus card makes it extremely convenient for travelers and locals to navigate the city, reducing the time you’d probably waste looking for change if you didn’t have a card with you. You can buy a new card at any subway station ticket office or machine or at the ferry ticket offices. You can also replenish the card with the amount you need for expected trips and expenses. When leaving Hong Kong, you can return the card at the ticket office to get a full refund and any unused cash.
