EZ-Link card was Singapore's very first contactless stored value card introduced for public transit use on the MRT, LRT and buses in April 2002. The card completes all its transactions within 0.2 seconds and in this way, revolutionarily makes travelling on buses and trains that much faster and smoother.
The new ez-link card which is CEPAS* compliant was the first CEPAS card to be launched in Singapore in 2008 and to date, remains the number 1 choice for contactless prepaid card payment in Singapore.
*CEPAS stands for Contactless ePurse Applications, a Singapore standard.
