First order with Half Fare

OKozyr

Hi everyone,
We plan our small trip to Switzerland and have some questions regarding tickets ordering and discounts. I’ve bought Swiss Half Fare Card and Swiss Family Card for my daughter (10 y.o.).
I’d like to buy tickets on 22.04 and see different prices on SBB website: 49 CHF (half fare) and SBB application: 65 CHF (point-to-point, reduced fare with Half-Fare), 49 CHF (saver day). It a bit confusing. Why is there such difference?
Also, should I order a ticket for my daughter or with Family Card I’m able to order ticket for myself only?
I’m looking forward for your advices

Hello OKozyr

Have you set the ½ fare travel card as discount type for each adult passenger?

If you hold the Swiss Family Card, this is your daughter’s ticket when travelling with you. No additional ticket is needed.

Kind regards,
Roland

RolandP Thank you Roland for such quick reply. Yes, I’ve set travel card as discount type and seems 65 CHF is a correct price, because 130 CHF without the discount.
So next question can I buy it even cheaper as booking in advance (49 CHF) or I need to buy Saver Day pass first? Screenshot form the website is attached

Hello OKozyr

Yes, definitely grab the the Saver Day Pass offer, provided it is for certain that you will travel as it is only available online and cannot be refunded.

It covers all public transit journeys for that day.

Kind regards,
Roland
