How to purchase tickets in advance using Swiss half fare card

[PU]

Hi, 

I am travelling to Switzerland in June 2022 for about 10 days and I have purchased "swiss half fare card" valid for 1 month. How can I use this while buying tickets for intercity journeys in Switzerland. If I try buying ticket on SBB website I do not see how/where to enter this information (that I am holding swiss half fare card) so that I can get the discount. Looking forward to the members expert advise. Thank you.

Hello @PU 

Thank you for your query.

You must adjust the discount when specifying the traveling person. After that you will get the reduced price.

I wish you a pleasant stay within Switzerland.

Kind regards,

Hello, MOD

As the picture that you shown, you choosen "Half Fare Travelcard". But I bought a Swiss Half Fare Card which is for non-swiss resident. As I googled in SBB CFF FFS Site, Half Fare Travelcard and Swiss Half Fare Card should be different thing, the price are different. What should I do?

Hi @ming_bai 

They are two different products because they are available for different target groups (residents vs international guests), but they both give the same advantage: to travel for half of the price. You may select "half fare travelcard" by discount cards as well.

I wish you a nice day.
