rail lines in Hong Kong. The multiple fare card stores credit purchased at stations. It is easy to use; simply wave it in front of the card reader located at all entrances and exits to the subway system. Riders who pay for metro fare with the transcard receive a 5% discount. Beginning 1 March 2008, riders who pay for a bus fare with the transcard and then a subway fare within 90 minutes receive an additional 40% discount on the subway fare.
Unlike Hong Kong Octopus Cards, Shenzhen Tong cards cannot be sold back to the stations or have faults dealt with by SZMC. Instead, the customer must go to the offices of Shenzhen Tong. Students studying in Shenzhen can use the Shenzhen Tong to receive a 50% discount.
Integration of Shenzhen Tong and Hong Kong Octopus Cards
After the completion of five Metro Phase II lines by 30 June 2011, users will be able to reciprocally use their Transcards in both Hong Kong and Shenzhen for bus and train commuter travel. Continuing research is taking place on the "merging" and "convertibility" of the two systems card. Flucuations in the HK Dollar with the Chinese RMB are the main issues to be resolved before the final plan is introduced formally.Station facilities, amenities and services
Stations have toilets (free of charge), and public telephones (although at some stations, these have not yet been connected). SZMC also operates luggage storage facilities in the concourse above Luohu Station.Third phase

First phase
The grand opening of the Shenzhen Metro system occurred at 5:00pm on Tuesday, 28 December 2004. The trial run was just in time for celebrations of the Chinese New Year.

Initially the English names of the stations were rendered in Hanyu Pinyin, but some of the names were changed to English translation with American spelling in mid-2011 on instructions from higher authorities.The Futian Checkpoint station opened on 28 June 2007 using the name Futian Kou'an.
Second phase
Shenzhen Metro increased to over a hundred operating metro stations in June 2011, before the Shenzhen Universiade games.Rolling Stock
