When using public transport, you must pay the boarding fee by cash or card. However, it is more common to use a card easily because using cash is cumbersome and does not provide benefits such as transfers. You can use a credit or debit card that supports the transportation card function, or use T-money. T-money is used by those who do not have a card under their own name or want to manage transportation expenses separately. Here’s how to check your T-money balance and how to request a refund. 티머니 잔액조회
How to check T-money balance 좋은뉴스
T-money is divided into physical form such as card type, sticker type, figure type, and watch type, and mobile type of NFC USIM used in conjunction with online apps. Regardless of the form, all prepaid T-money cards can be easily checked and recharged. When boarding, a balance of more than the basic fare of the means of use is required, and a balance of at least 250 won is required for transfers, so please inquire and charge in advance. There are three ways to check your T-money balance.
1) Offline device use
The first is to check your balance through devices everywhere. Any T-money in real form is possible. You can place your card on the transportation card charger in the subway station, check the card balance at a convenience store, or check the balance through a bank ATM. In addition, depending on the region, you can check the T-money balance by holding the card at the arrival information terminal at the bus stop.

In addition to the subway and bus, you can also pay with T-money when using a taxi. If you board the T-money card taxi, you can check the T-money balance through the tag device in the car. When the words [Empty car]/[Drive] are displayed on the payment machine, you can check how much charge is left by holding the card.
Please note that if you tag a credit card other than a prepaid card or a postpaid card such as a postpaid transportation bar, it may be treated as a bill payment rather than a balance inquiry
2) T-money website membership registration
The second method of checking the T-money balance is to check the card usage history and remaining amount through membership registration and login. If you register as a member and register your card, it is convenient to deal with loss and theft, and you can easily process T mileage accumulation history, income deduction application, and child/youth discount registration.
T-money provides various services such as T-Money Pay, T-Money Mobile, Kobus, Intercity Bus Reservation (Cpass), and Biz Pay. All are available. After verifying your identity with your mobile phone or i-PIN, you can sign up for T-money membership.
After logging in, go to the [Card Registration] menu. Write the serial card number on the back of the physical card and enter up to the 3-digit CVC number to register information. Multiple cards can be registered, so if possible, register and manage all cards in use.
After registering the card, go to [My T-Money] – [View Usage History] menu. After agreeing to the transaction history inquiry, select the card for which you want to check the balance among the registered cards. Next, set the search period and click the [Search] button.
Now, at the bottom of the page, your T-money usage history is displayed. Usage, recharge, and refund are listed by date, and you can also check your T-money balance here. If you select the [Use] tab, you can check the details of the amount used, boarding/alighting station, location of use, and vehicle number. In addition to using public transportation, all T-money payments at convenience stores, etc. are also viewed.
Please note that in the case of adolescents and children members, there is a way for parents to inquire and check usage history or to receive them by e-mail or Kakao Talk notification talk.
3) App NFC inquiry
The third and final way to check your T-money balance is to use the Mobile T-money app. If you search for an application in the App Market, you will find three types of applications with the same name as above, which are designed differently depending on the carrier. You can download and use the T-money application of the carrier you use among the three carriers.
You can easily check the T-money balance by downloading and running the application, going to [Menu] – [T-money card balance inquiry], and then holding the T-money card you have on the right side of the camera on the back of the phone. You can check the current remaining amount, view recent usage history, and recharge the amount.
In addition to this, when registering or registering for Mobile T-money, you can accumulate additional mileage through attendance checks and events, send and receive the remaining amount as a gift, and pay with QR Zero Pay. There are many advantages such as using T mileage in various ways and it is convenient to inquire where it is used, so if you are a T-money user, please use the app as well.
Application for T-money balance refund
When you no longer use the service, when your card is broken, or if you want to use the recharged amount as cash, you must apply for a refund.
If there is no problem with the function, but the user wishes to refund the balance, it is classified as [normal refund] and the fee is deducted by 500 won. If the balance is less than 30,000 won, you can get a refund directly at GS25, CU, 7-Eleven, Ministop, Buy the Way convenience stores, Lalabla, or newsstands. You can also get a refund after deducting the 500 won fee at bank ATMs such as Shinhan Bank, Woori Bank, Kookmin Bank, Hana Bank, and Post Office.

On the other hand, if there is a problem with the function and a refund of the T-money balance is required, it is classified as [Refund of defective card]. Regardless of the amount, you can choose one of the methods such as a convenience store / subway service center / website / telecommunication company agency / visit T-money town.
