The 'Ekinet App' is a super cool app that lets you book and handle your reservations for Shinkansen and express trains without having to deal with paper tickets. You can easily make reservations, tweak the details, and even get refunds right from your phone. Plus, it's so convenient because you can use your mobile Suica to hop on the Shinkansen and earn extra JRE POINTs when you pay with View Card Gold. This awesome app covers a bunch of Shinkansen lines like Tohoku, Hokkaido, Joetsu, Hokuriku, Yamagata, and Akita.

The app also lets users snag seats on fancy express trains using the 'Ekinet Ticketless Service.' You can just tap your Suica card or any other IC card you already have for the train ticket. The service works with lots of express trains like Chuo, Joban, Tokaido, Narita Express, Takasaki, Boso, Kamakura, and JR Hokkaido ones. But here's the deal: some trains only do the 'Tokuda Value' (ticketless) thing, while others only do the 'Ekinet Ticketless Seat Reservation Ticket' thing.

The Ekinet App has some cool features to make your experience even better. You can use your fingerprint or face scan to log in, check out your upcoming reservations right on the home screen, and easily make reservations with just a few taps using the favorite function. Plus, you can apply for, change, or get a refund for your reservations without any hassle. And here's the best part - you can pre-register for Ekinet Ticketless Service and snag a reservation up to two months in advance! The app also lets you make reservations for up to six people and even gives you the option to get an 'Ekinet Usage Receipt and Receipt' right from the app. To get started, all you need to do is sign up as a member. If you're already an Ekinet member, just use your registered user ID to log in. And if you're new around here, no worries - just sign up as an Ekinet member on our website before using the app. Easy peasy!
