Information on the eTicket
- At RMV ticket machines bearing the eTicket logo the weekly ticket for pupils and apprentices is issued as eTicket. Only tickets for RMV cross-network fare zones are still issued on paper. This means:
- You must have a smartcard and eligibility for using the ticket charged at the training rate must be stored on it. If the eligibility time window corresponds to the ticket selection, the monthly ticket for the RMV area is solely issued as an electronic ticket. If the selection does not correspond, a ticket cannot be purchased.
- Mixing eTicket and paper format (eligibility on the eTicket and monthly ticket as a token or vice versa) is not possible.
