How do outsiders buy tickets when taking the Beijing subway?

Foreigners taking the Beijing subway can choose online payment or cash payment at the self-service ticket machines to purchase tickets. In addition, some subway stations have manual ticket windows, and tickets can also be purchased through the manual windows. In addition, you can also use mobile phone software to purchase tickets.

If you buy a ticket at a self-service ticket vending machine, you need to select your destination, and then the machine will automatically calculate the specific fare, and then you can pay with coins or electronic payment. After the payment is successful, you can take out the passenger car and then go to the station to take the subway.

If you buy a ticket at a manual ticket window, you only need to explain the specific destination to the conductor. After paying the corresponding fee, the conductor will submit the bus card (one-way ticket) to the passenger.
