This is so easy to use. Though reserved seats are quite expensive plus fulfillment fee 😭 But I didn't regret this since I was travelling with my mom who is a senior citizen (72 y/o) so having reserved seats with secured space for big luggages is a must. Thus, booking these tickets were indeed very convenient. But if I will be travelling with friends and on a tight budget, unreserved seats are fine with me.. Just be at the platform earlier to queue and have a good spot inside the cabin. 😊 Oh, btw.. using the ticket is so easy, you just need to scan your QR. Then, the physical ticket will pop-up when you pass thru the end of the gate. 😉

super convenient to buy and redeem on the spot. 1,2 or 3 days pass to choose from. Basically this is the only subway pass that you need for Tokyo transportation, the rest of the company transportation just buy the ticket per use

Easy to use, travel with confidence, worth the price, no matter which subway line you travel on, it's convenient and fast. Just have a subway card that can be used an unlimited number of times.

It is very convenient to redeem tickets with the ticket purchase machine. It is simple to use... and saves a lot on transportation costs. It is worth buying... I will buy it again next time...
