They come with some stored value, but you will most likely have to top up – top up machines take cash, and at MRT stops cards as well. You can use your ez-link balance to pay for purchases at 7-11 and taxis.

So very very similar system to those in Yokohama and Seoul then :)

I get to add a 3rd such card to my collection!

The Japanese one is the coolest though, because it was customisable with your name (or any word(s) you typed into the vending machine).

Cheers,
Daniel
