Hello @Fanny0404Link opens in new window. Thank you for your request. The passport ID is not written on the Swiss Travel Pass. At the ticket control, the ID card is used to check the name and date of birth.
If you want to benefit from the Travel Pass again, you can simply buy the offer again. Have a nice day. Kind regards ZoeS

@Fanny0404Link opens in new window. The passport number is NOT printed on the Swiss Travel Pass. All it contains is your names and your date of birth. The passport or ID card is only needed during ticket inspection.Best regards,
Roland

renewal of half fare card but payment abroad

Hello,I need to pay for the second year of half fare card but I'm now away from Switzerland (even outside of EU). I have no Swiss bank account, revolut does not accept (I cannot add recipient), my home country bank account will deduct transfer fee from SBB's side. I would like to pay by card but it seems that it is only possible for new order. Is there any possibility to pay bill by card? Or can the other person pay by card at the SBB office if he/she brings my invoice?
