How Does My Style Differ From a Commuter Pass?




Perk No. 1: You only pay for what you use


Unlike fixed price and pre-paid commuter passes, My Style’s designated usage portion offers savings and peace of mind since on months with light usage you only pay for what you have used, and charges are capped for those heavy-use months. Considering lighter use on months with long holidays (such as Golden Week, Obon holidays, and year-end & New Year holidays), My Style sometimes offers greater savings than a 6-month commuter pass.

Perk No. 2: Visit new places without considering the cost


First of all, My Style is not built around the concept of “routes.” Not only can you travel between your two registered stations, journeys between registered stations and applicable stations also fall under designated usage covered by a cap on payments. With a commuter pass, additional charges are required for travel outside the specified route, but with My Style, the designated usage area* spreads out from the route, offering savings and making it possible to visit new places without hesitating or considering the cost.

Perk No. 3: There is no need for multiple cards


With My Style, even if your travel does not fall under designated usage with its set cap on payments, discounts based on usage charges are applied. If you are currently using a range of cards depending on the scenario (commuter passes for traveling to work, coupon cards for side trips, and 1-day passes for trips on days off), registering for My Style will let you cover your commuting, side trips and days off with a single PiTaPa card! Since it eliminates all sorts of calculations, you can relax and feel like you’ve got a good deal.



Perk No. 4: You don’t have to go out to buy a pass


Payments are not the only area where My Style offers advantages. As we all know, it’s a nuisance having to go and buy a commuter pass or consider things like business hours. With My Style, you can register online from the comfort of your own home at a time that suits you. Also, if you set the service termination month to indefinite, you only need to register once, and the time you’ve saved can be used for something else to your advantage. You can also register at the commuter pass sales counters in Osaka Metro station buildings. Fill out the required details on the designated registration application form, and submit it with your PiTaPa card, at the counter.

Note: Student-class registrations can only be completed at the commuter pass sales counters in Osaka Metro station buildings.

Security : Rest easy when troubles arise


No doubt many of us have experienced that “oh no!” feeling that comes with dropping a brand new commuter pass. Lost or stolen PiTaPa cards can be canceled with a phone call to prevent unauthorized use. Since we can also reissue your card, you can relax even if your card goes missing.
