K-Pass Transportation Card: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to get a significant refund on your monthly public transport expenses using the K-Pass system.

The K-Pass Transportation Card is a program designed to give you money back on your monthly public transport costs.

Who it's for

This scheme is for people who use public transport at least 15 times in a single month.

What you get

You can receive a refund on your monthly transportation expenses. Depending on your specific circumstances, the amount returned to you can range from 20% to 53% of what you spent.

What it costs you

There is no direct fee to participate in the program, but you do need to take the time to register your card online to activate the benefits.

The catch to know

Simply buying the card is not enough. The most common mistake is forgetting to register the card on the official portal after you have purchased it; if you don't register, you won't receive the refunds.

How to apply

  1. Purchase a K-Pass transportation card.
  2. Visit the official online portal.
  3. Register your card details to link it to your account.
  4. Use your card for public transport at least 15 times a month.
