What are the differences between Swiss Travel Pass vs GA Travelcards?

Are they the same thing? I cannot find a simple summary in this Community page yet.

Hello @swissbio 

The Swiss Travel Pass is for tourists residing outside of Switzerland and Liechtenstein. It has the same validity range as the GA, and, in addition, includes a museum pass.

The GA is available to anyone yet has a contracutal minimum duration of 6 months; In addition, there is the GA monthly travel pass which is available for one month.

Please come back if you have got a specific product question.

Best regards,
