Recharge method: convenience store recharge.

Almost all stores with Octopus card readers can recharge Octopus, including "7. 1 1" convenience store, OK convenience store, two supermarkets, McDonald's, Maxim's, Cafe de coral and other fast food restaurants.

All stations of MTR, Kowloon-Canton Railway, Kowloon-Canton Railway or Kowloon-Canton Light Rail, customer service centers of some stations, ticket offices of all stations (except Kowloon-Canton Light Rail) and KMB customer service center also provide recharge services.

Each Octopus card can store up to HK$ 1000 yuan. In addition, even if the transaction amount is greater than the balance in the card, as long as the difference is not greater than 35 yuan, the transaction can still be conducted without recharging.

In other words, the maximum negative storage value of Octopus is 35 yuan dollars. This allows users to take most of Hong Kong's transportation or purchase even if the stored value is insufficient.
