Compared with Alipay, Nanjing Metro Card will be more favorable, but sometimes Alipay will hold some preferential activities regularly. For example, Alipay will sometimes launch Subway Zhou Ka, or launch some 5% discount activities when Subway is capped. During these activities, it will be more favorable to use Alipay.
Nanjing Metro has launched Jinling Pass Card, which has the function of storing value, no minimum amount limit and no ceiling. Minors can enjoy a 5% discount and adults can enjoy a 9.5% discount. In addition, according to the preferential policies, if you use Jinling Tong to take the subway, you can enjoy a one-yuan discount if you change to other public transport, such as bus or subway, within one and a half hours.
In addition, in Nanjing, besides Jinling Pass, you can also use one-way tickets, that is, round subway tickets with the same face value as the purchase price. It takes effect when you enter the gate by riding alone. When you arrive at the destination boarding gate, you just need to put the card in the recycling location.
