Since some online searches say you need to exchange tickets while others say you don't, Klook stated that no ticket exchange is needed and you can enter directly. The first station staff member said it needed to be exchanged online, but another said we could scan and enter directly. The ticket vending machine definitely did not recognize this QR code. In the end, we were able to just scan and enter at Shinagawa Station; we had to hold the phone right against the scanner window for it to register. After scanning, a receipt printed out from the ticket gate, which you can take.

Love this station! Allow time to explore as it is really great. Check out the Traveler's Factory store for great stationary. There is also a cool Pokemon store for the kids. Moreover, the station itself is very organised and easy to get around even when very busy
