Singapore's cross-border Causeway Link buses from Newton, Queen Street to go cashless from Aug 20
Causeway Link bus services from Singapore's Newton and Queen Street stations to Malaysia have transitioned to a fully cashless payment system as of August 20. Commuters are now required to use contactless cards or mobile apps to pay for their fares.
Why it matters
This shift reflects the broader regional trend toward digital payment infrastructure in public transportation to improve efficiency.
SINGAPORE: Commuters travelling to Malaysia from Newton and Queen Street will no longer be able to pay in cash on board Causeway Link buses from Aug 20.
In a Facebook post on Aug 17, Causeway Link said commuters can instead pay by card – Visa, Mastercard, ManjaLink or EZ-Link.
ManjaLink is a contactless smart card used for cashless payments on cross-border Causeway Link buses, or selected bus routes within Johor in Malaysia.
