JoyYou Card “Easy Transfer” Service
Now you can transfer the services / offers# on your existing On-Loan Octopus¹, or Sold Octopus² to JoyYou Card with our new “Easy Transfer” service at Octopus Service Points located at designated MTR stations or shopping malls, so you can consolidate and manage your daily payment transactions for transit or shopping with just a single Octopus - JoyYou Card. You may also choose to retain your current Octopus³, while using the JoyYou Card to enjoy the $2 concessionary fare.

Therefore, if you transfer the services / offers on your On-Loan Octopus to a JoyYou Card, the $50 deposit on your existing On-Loan Octopus will be transferred to the JoyYou Card, and the On-Loan Octopus will be retained after the card transfer. If you have a Sold Octopus and transfer the services / offers to a JoyYou Card that has never been reloaded, the system will deduct $50 of the remaining value on this Sold Octopus, which will become the JoyYou Card deposit after the transfer. The Octopus function of the Sold Octopus will be disabled after the transfer.
