"Shanghai Buses Can Now Use WeChat, Try This Ride Code"

Sanvi is back. After kneeling in front of the keyboard for a week, she finally calmed down Grandma Shao's anger (for not getting the Dyson curling iron).

Now, her mood is so pleasant.

However, it seems that many of Grandma Shao's purchasing agent friends are eager to help.

During the National Day holiday, I went back to Shenzhen with Grandma Shao. As a Shenzhen local, I might be a fake Shenzhen person without a Shenzhen transportation card.

I believe everyone has had this experience: not having a transportation card and no cash on hand. Just when you are worried about what to do, a beautiful, understanding young lady appears beside you and offers her help. Then, feeling embarrassed, you add her WeChat and say you'll transfer her the money, starting a plot like in an idol drama, only to find out that she is the daughter of a certain group. Then, against all odds, you marry the rich beauty, become the CEO, and reach the peak of your life.

.........

Sorry, I took the wrong script.

The reality is that you stood there like a fool for a long time, finally saw someone coming, and then stared at him like a predator before asking him for money to buy a ticket. The other person looked at you with suspicion, and you awkwardly said, "Let me transfer you on WeChat." The other person, like a panicked rabbit, immediately awkwardly replied, "No, no need," and quickly ran away. At this moment, a security guard in the distance looked at you with an expression that seemed ready to subdue you, almost saying, "Go get him, Wangcai!"

To avoid such situations, Tencent's "Ride Code" has emerged.

First, enter the mini-program from the discovery entry.

Search for "Tencent Ride Code."

Then follow the process to activate it.

How to use it:

Open "My," find the card package in the list, and then locate "Subway Ride Code."

Click to scan the code for riding, and you will enter the mini-program.

Then just operate as smoothly as the guy below.

What if the network is bad?

The network environment at bus stops is not stable, and when the mobile signal is poor, scanning the code for payment may experience significant delays.

To solve this problem, "Tencent Ride Code" uses dual offline QR code technology: on one hand, passengers' phones can generate the "Ride Code" offline; on the other hand, the scanning turnstiles can also verify the QR code offline.

In summary, Sanvi says you don't need to turn on Bluetooth or have a network; you can scan the code to enter the station. So can I ride the subway for free? Sanvi can only say that's impossible. Little Ma always finds a way to make you spend money.

Is it available in my city?

As far as I know, 75 cities have already integrated the "Tencent Ride Code." If you want to know the specific city names and whether your city has activated the ride code, just open the "Tencent Ride Code" mini-program. The mini-program will display all the cities that have activated the ride code and automatically locate your city, informing you whether the ride code is available there, as shown in the picture below:

In the activated cities, you can see the available routes and what modes of transport are supported. For example, the ride code in Shanghai only supports buses and ferries.

If you are in Shanghai and using an iPhone, it is recommended that you create a new transportation card directly in the "Wallet" app on your iPhone to use Apple Pay.
