WOWPASS: Go Cashless in Korea users say on Google Play
Very convince to use, offer good rates when transferring any current to KRW. Great experience
difficult to set up using the app.. you must have an e-passport to verify your identity. I am not going to wander in the rain to find a wow machine. may be the t money part will work. I will just pay cash or regular credit card. have high hope for Wowpass since I have the HK octopus card. Once I foud an kiosk to add $ manually, the experience was good. I transfered fund to my wife's card and used the T card on multiple trip. All in all, app without E passport is a no go. otherwise, works well.
I found it a bit complicated. At the airport the machine doesn't accept card payments. So I never managed to get it or use it.
While the card itself has been useful, the app to manage it not so much. Not able to top up using a Visa card (PayPal option diseapeared) and accessing the t mobile account throws an error.
You better use LOCA Mobility card which sold on GS25 cvs. It can reduce all the fees and can use merged balance with transport card and debit card. And this costs only 3,000 won
