VISITORS can buy a single card to pay for all their expenses such as food, transport and souvenirs at the World Expo 2010 site starting yesterday.
The Expo Commercial Card, issued by the Expo organizer and Shanghai Commercial Investment Co Ltd, a state-owned company, are on sale at China Post and China Telecom outlets across the country. The card is refundable.
The cards cost 200 or 500 yuan. People can add money to the card at 7,000 locations across the city.
The card will be another means of payment apart from cash and credit cards at the Expo site.
It can pay for expenses at 178 stores and restaurants at the Expo site, including those opened by foreign pavilions, which account for more than 90 percent of all the stores and restaurants at the site.
Some discounts will also be offered at some restaurants at the site.
