KOBUS booking

티머니 booking 버스타고 booking

Terminal names are shown in Korean because that is how they appear on tickets, signs and booking sites. Fares are adult one-way. Express buses (고속버스) are booked on KOBUS, intercity buses (시외버스) on T-money or Bustago.

Paying with a foreign card

Checked 2026-10-21. Rules change, so confirm on the payment screen.

Express buses (고속버스)

KOBUS: Choose the overseas card tab (해외카드) at checkout. It takes Visa, Mastercard and JCB issued abroad and asks for your date of birth (YYMMDD).
Klook: Sells express bus tickets in English with international cards. Routes and dates are limited, so a search may come back empty.
Go Hanpass: App in many languages, sign-up with passport and email. You top up a won wallet with a foreign card, then pay from it. Lists express and intercity buses.
Ticket counter at the terminal: A July 2024 government announcement described foreign cards as already accepted at express bus counters. Busy departures can sell out.

Intercity buses (시외버스)

Ticket counter at the terminal: Foreign Visa, Mastercard, JCB and UnionPay cards were announced as accepted at all 243 intercity terminals from July 2024. Busy departures can sell out.
Go Hanpass: App in many languages, sign-up with passport and email. You top up a won wallet with a foreign card, then pay from it. Lists express and intercity buses.
T-money and Bustago websites: Their guides do not say whether foreign cards work. Bustago suspended foreign-card payments in October 2025 and has posted no restart notice, although a software vendor reported in October 2026 that its app accepts them again. Not confirmed.
