Ringo Pass – A Comprehensive Travel App for Sharing Bicycles, Taxis and Buses
Ringo Pass is a free travel and navigation app developed by East Japan Railway Company ICT2 for Android users. The app is designed to provide a comprehensive travel experience by enabling users to use bicycle sharing, taxi dispatch, and bus services with ease. With Ringo Pass, you can use two share cycle services, docomo bike share and HELLO CYCLING, and check the rental/return status of shared bicycles at the port near you. You can easily unlock the share cycle with Suica / Mobile Suica, which can be used as a key for share cycle just by registering it.
The app also allows you to board the bus just by touching the “Ringo Pass” mark (NFC tag) inside the bus, and multiple passengers (4 adults, 4 children) can be boarded with a single touch. Payment is also completed with the app, making it completely cashless. Payment is made from the registered credit card, and you can use Mobile Suica net payment for bus fare payment and JRE POINT (1 point = 1 yen) for taxi fare payment. This app is recommended for those who want to use a share cycle, taxi dispatch, and those who want to avoid the 3 Cs and move.
