Booking train tickets online using Half Fare Card

GauravRai

Hi Everyone,

My name is Gaurav (Indian) and I would be traveling along with my wife to Switzerland for vacation at the end of May. I have purchased Swiss Half Fare Card for both of us online. Now I wish to book train tickets in advance via the sbb app.
But at the time of booking I am not able to locate an option which helps me select the Half Fare Card. Please guide me as to how to proceed.
Also, whether the prices shown on the sbb app are half prices or once the discount (which in my case is SWISS HALF FARE CARD) the prices are further slashed to half.

Please help.

I also understand similar questions may already been answered in the past and therefore apologies for the repeat question.

Thanks and God Bless

Not that it is not necessary to buy tickets in advance. Swiss trains are mass transit, and just buying a ticket at the station, or using your phone only moments before travel is the norm. People use trains for their every day business, and typically do not buy tickets far in advance.
