Starting on February 11, 2011, a contactless smart card, manaca, supplemented and eventually replaced Tranpass.
[1] Tranpass cards could be used in all Nagoya Municipal Subway lines, all Nagoya City buses, nearly all stations in Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu), some buses operated by Meitetsu, all of the Aonami Line, and all of the Linimo Line.
[2][3] Within the Nagoya area, Tranpass was able to be used to pay for nearly any public transportation except for JR Central railway stations or Kintetsu stations, which used a different magnetic fare card system, namely TOICA, or Suica in the case of JR Central and PiTaPa in the case of Kintetsu.
Unlike other magnetic fare card systems in Japan like TOICA, however, Tranpass could only be used to pay transportation fare, and could not be used in place of cash at other retail shops like convenience stores or restaurants.
The cards were sold at ticket machines near station gates, and generally contained more money for fare than the price of the card in Japanese yen.
