Cut your travel expenses in half with the Half-Fare travelcard. The Half-Fare travelcard offers you half-price travel on the whole of the SBB network, all PostBus routes, almost all boat services and the majority of private and mountain railways.
Many companies are already enjoying the benefits of this unbeatable discount card and are funding its purchase for their employees. Travel expenses for train journeys are therefore cut in half. Of course, the Half-Fare travelcard can be used for leisure pursuits too, making it a very attractive fringe benefit.
The Half-Fare travelcard also offers a 15% discount on journeys to Germany and Austria from the Swiss border.
It is expected that business customers will continue to receive the Half-Fare travelcard in the form of the blue card until the end of 2018. You can also continue to purchase 2-year and 3-year Half-Fare travelcards via SBB Businesstravel until then. The Half-Fare travelcard is due to be issued on the SwissPass from the end of 2018.
