The Digital Izmirim Card Era in İZBAN

The Digital İzmirim Card application, which allows boarding public transportation vehicles affiliated with the İzmir Metropolitan Municipality using a QR code, will also be available on İZBAN starting from October 28. Thanks to this service, İzmir residents will be able to travel on all public transportation vehicles without carrying a physical card, using the Digital İzmirim Card.

İzmir Innovation and Technology Inc., a subsidiary of the İzmir Metropolitan Municipality, has launched another important service. The Digital İzmirim Card application, which enables boarding using a QR code for journeys on ESHOT, İZULAŞ, İZDENİZ, metro, and tram vehicles, will also be valid on İZBAN as of October 28. This means there will be no need to carry a physical card, and travel on İZBAN will be possible with the Digital İzmirim Card created through the İzmirim Card mobile application.

The advantages of the İzmirim Card will continue digitally

The Digital İzmirim Card, which can be used for free, will operate under the same system as the physical İzmirim Card. Citizens will be able to load balances digitally, check their balance, and use public transportation vehicles by passing through with a QR code. For refunds, the devices where the physical İzmirim Card is scanned will be utilized. Refunds can be obtained by scanning the QR code from the mobile İzmirim Card on the device. All personalized cardholders will be able to create a Digital İzmirim Card. Users of the Digital İzmirim Card will benefit from advantages such as transfers, discounted boarding, ‘Pay as You Go’, and Public Transport, just like with the physical card. Digital İzmirim Cards can be created in five different boarding types: full, student, teacher, 60 years old, and 65 years old. Work is also ongoing for boarding İZBAN with a credit card included in the Digital İzmirim Card.
