For those who do not want to use an APP. There are swipe cards available for travel on public transport.

Tips. The bus card can also be used on the Metro, and the Metro card can also be used on the bus.

We were told that there is only one location that you can top up the bus card, and another location if you want to cash it in and get a refund.

You cannot top up the bus card at the Metro.
You can buy a Metro travel card at most Metro stations, and top them up at any Metro station.

The Metro card is a T-Union card and this card is already accepted in 190 cities in China and in 220 cities by the end of the year www.yicaiglobal.com/[...] Caveat, in some cities you need to use the T-Union card to get a temporary local transport card.

Or you can avoid jumping through all those hoops and just carry small change around - still works good.

Or better yet, instead of lining the pockets of these vile bureaucrats that are always shaking down the sheeple, you can avoid all that by relying on what God, in all his glorious wisdom gave you. If you have two perfectly working legs then use them.

Stop contributing to the degradation of our environment, stop the cycle of consumerism, let those in power know, we will not be treated like a resource to be consumed, we have souls, damn it.

Seems like an easy solution to me.
