The Incheon Metropolitan Government announced plans for the ‘Incheon I-Pass’ program starting in May, which expands the coverage of the government’s public transportation discount initiative, ‘K-Pass.’ 

The Incheon I-Pass offers a 20% refund on public transportation expenses, falling within the scope of benefits provided by the government’s K-Pass program. However, it extends the limit to unlimited, up to 60 times per month for K-Pass holders. Individuals aged 19 to 39, categorized as youth, are eligible for a refund rate of up to 30%, and those aged 65 and above also qualify for the same refund rate of up to 30%. 

To avail of the benefits of the Incheon I-Pass program, you first need to acquire a K-Pass card and subsequently register as a member on the K-Pass website (https://korea-pass.kr). During registration, if your address is verified to be in Incheon, you will automatically be entitled to receive the benefits of the Incheon I-Pass.

Current users of the discounted transportation card can enjoy the benefits of both K-Pass and Incheon I-Pass by consenting to membership transfer on the K-Pass website with their existing discounted transportation card until June 30. The benefits of the Incheon I-Pass are applicable from the day of membership transfer or new membership registration for K-Pass.

Mayor Yoo Jeong-bok remarked, “The Incheon I-Pass has enhanced and broadened the government’s K-Pass, aiming to offer diverse public transportation options and deliver a more extensive and reliable public transportation service to Incheon’s residents.” He further commented, “This initiative presents an opportunity to alleviate the financial strain on citizens facing economic challenges due to high living costs, serving as a well-supported policy deeply intertwined with citizens’ everyday lives and transportation expenditures.”
