If you buy a transportation card in Chinese cities, you can top it up only in that city you bought. You can get a refund only in that city. If you have a transportation card with China T-Union logo, you can use the card in about 90 percent of cities under China T-Union network.

You can buy Hutong Card in Beijing, use and top up in other cities. But you can’t return it in Shanghai except Beijing. (buy and return in the same city)
Noted that the hutong card must have “China T-Union” logo on the card.

If you buy a card with China T Union logo, you can use it many other cities that joined China T Union network. It is not 100 percent possible, some cities are not ready yet to accept your card, maybe 90 percent now. If you buy it in Beijing, it can be only topped up within Beijing. Also, you can get refund only in Beijing. Each city in China have different policy about transportation card. It is better to buy a transportation card in big cities with subway network.
