Buying tickets now and Half Fare Card later

Danhiel

Yes, it is possible. Indicate that you have a Half Fare Travelcard discount when adding the passengers. No check will be made if you really have one. You have to show the Half Fare Card in the train with the ticket and your physical passport or ID.

Kind regards

Hi Danhiel Thank you for confirming. I was able to search for point-to-point tickets to buy as well as Saver Day Passes earlier this morning. But now, when I log in, my account just says “We are currently processing your application for a new SwissPass. We will contact you if we require further information.” I can no longer use the SwissPass account to search for tickets. Between this morning and now, the only things I did were conducted an online identity verification process and join this community to ask this question (which automatically gave me a new ID of Thaittievox84). What happened to my SwissPass account? I would like to use it to buy tickets.

Do you want to buy a Swiss Half Fare Card for tourists? In this case, no SwissPass application and identity verification are required. I suggest to contact the SBB to see if it is possible to interrupt this process. You can find options at the bottom of this page (chat, phone):
