Frequently Asked Questions
If your card is registered in the WOWPASS app, you can temporarily pause/unpause your card. (Settings --> Card Management --> Pause).
Then, another person who may have picked up your card is not able to use it. If you found your card, please unpause it from the app.
If you could not find your card, please visit a WOW Exchange kiosk and re-issue your card. You can still use the card balance of your previous card.
If your card is not registered in the WOWPASS app, please contact the customer support.
WOW Exchange kiosks are located in more than 70 subway stations in Seoul, hotels, and tourist attractions.

You can top-up the Tmoney balance at convenience stores or blue Tmoney kiosks installed at subway stations.
It is not possible to charge T-money with WOWPASS card, and you need to charge with KRW cash, so please prepare KRW cash to some extent. We recommend you to exchange cash or withdraw cash from your WOWPASS card balance at a WOW Exchange kiosk.
You can check your Tmoney balance using WOWPASS mobile app.
If you have a phone without NFC function, you can still check your balance at convenience stores or blue Tmoney kiosks installed at subway stations.
