The tourist Istanbulkart offers no refunds whatsoever. If you plan to use public transport heavily, consider buying at least two cards, since each has a monthly spending cap of 2,750 TRY.

The tourist Istanbulkart works like a standard transit card: tap once per passenger at the turnstile. Unlike some other cards, the red tourist version has no cooldown period between taps. There is no need to tap out after a ride, and no cashback or refunds apply.
