A button-type transmission control device includes: a button portion which includes a first area and a second area different from the first area; a hinge disposed under the button portion; and a substrate which is disposed under the hinge. The substrate includes a first terminal placed under the first area and a second terminal placed under the second area. When pressure is applied to the first area, the button portion is inclined such that the first area descends with respect to the hinge, so that the first area contacts the first terminal, and a gear shift position corresponding to the first terminal is selected. When pressure is applied to the second area, the button portion is inclined such that the second area descends with respect to the hinge, so that the second area contacts the second terminal, and a gear shift position corresponding to the second terminal is selected.
