‘Octopus – China T-Union Card’ is most used in Shenzhen, followed by Guangzhou, Shanghai and Hangzhou.
About 50,000 new Octopus cards allowing Hongkongers to pay for public transport in 336 cities across mainland China have been sold since March, with the company planning to broaden its reach to more overseas markets.
The company on Monday revealed the latest figures for the card, which costs HK$68 and allows holders to pay for trips on buses, trains and ferries carrying the China T-Union logo.
