Technology for daily commuting sure has come a long way since the first use of farecards in 1987. As part of EZ-Link’s attempt to modernise its fare payment system, the company launched the EZ charm — a trendy upgrade of the original EZ-Link card design!
Besides providing the obvious benefit of allowing owners to conveniently bypass fare gates without whipping out their card, they double as fashionable trinkets with their limited edition themes and designs. Looking to buy EZ charms for yourself? Read on for our list of must-own EZ-Link charms in Singapore!

Give everyone’s favourite sleeping giant a new home on your phone when you buy a Snorlax EZ charm! A fan-favourite among Pokemon enthusiasts, Snorlax is beloved for his cuddly appearance and laidback lifestyle of eating and sleeping.

Regardless of how you feel about the cat-like character, you can’t help but admire how many different variations of Hello Kitty EZ charms there are on the market.

An Olaf EZ charm would be the perfect gift for any Frozen fan, young or old!

Although the holiday season is over, this doesn’t mean you can’t rock a Christmas-themed Pikachu EZ charm!
