About this experience
The EasyCard is Taiwan's all-in-one contactless transit and payment card, similar to Hong Kong's Octopus card or Tokyo's Suica, and is considered an essential item for anyone exploring Taiwan independently. This version is exclusively available to non-Taiwanese residents and is collected upon arrival at Taoyuan International Airport, allowing travelers to start using it immediately for their onward journey into the city.
The card offers broad coverage across Taiwan's public transport network, including all Taipei Metro and Kaohsiung Metro lines, the Airport MRT connecting Taoyuan Airport to Taipei Main Station, Taiwan Railways (excluding select express and reserved-seat services such as the Puyuma and Taroko Express), city buses across major cities including Taipei, New Taipei, Taichung, and Tainan, and bike-share systems such as YouBike, T-Bike, and C-Bike. Beyond transport, the EasyCard also functions as a cashless payment method at convenience stores (7-Eleven, FamilyMart, OK Mart), select cafes and retailers (Starbucks, Cosmed, Watsons), and attractions such as Taipei Zoo and Maokong Gondola, where cardholders can also enjoy fare discounts.
This makes the EasyCard a practical, time-saving solution for travelers who want to move seamlessly between airport transfer, city transit, and everyday purchases without carrying cash or repeatedly purchasing individual tickets.
Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel this booking?
Every option shows its own cancellation terms before you pay — where free cancellation applies, the window closes at 00:00 (midnight), local time at the destination, on the cut-off day. Cancel from My bookings within the window for a full refund (once your ticket has been issued, message support inside the window and we cancel it for you); after it, the option's terms apply. Full details in our cancellation & refund policy.
Can I change the date of my booking?
Date changes aren't automatic — they depend on the operator. Email support@readytrip.com from the address you booked with, quoting your booking reference and the new date you'd like, and we'll ask the operator for you. Changes are subject to their approval and availability; if the date can't be moved, your booking's cancellation terms apply.
