IC cards in Japan are a convenient item that almost all locals in cities have. They are rechargeable cards that can be used to pay public transportation fares, and to make payments at vending machines(recent ones) and kiosks at stations and an increasing number of shops and restaurants even outside stations.
In Kansai region, they are selling a new IC card for foreign tourists named “KANSAI ONE PASS”. The valid area of this card will be the areas covered by ICOCA and PiTaPa (current IC cards used in Kansai regions).
In addition to using “KANSAI ONE PASS” as an IC card, the card holder can get discounts and other benefits at around 90 shops and tourist sites including 41 shops in Kansai International Airport. The IC card comes with a Kansai region train map. Their mobile site and the train map are available in English, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, and Korean. Non-Japanese passport will be required for the purchase.
