What is a Railcard?
A Railcard is a discount card that allows you to save up to 1/3 off the price of eligible train tickets, making it a great way to secure cheap fares.
Railcard types
There are nine main types of UK Railcards available. These are:
Network Railcard
16-17 Saver
16-25 Railcard
26-30 Railcard
Family & Friends Railcard
Two Together Railcard
Senior Railcard
Disabled Persons Railcard
Veterans Railcard
As an official retailer of Railcards from National Rail, you can buy seven of these in a digital format with us.
How much is a Railcard?
All new Railcards cost £30 for the whole year, except for the Disabled Persons Railcard, which costs just £20. Once you have a Railcard, you can get 1/3 off the price of your rail travel, making it a great way to secure cheap fares. Some Railcards are also available as a three-year option for £70, giving you even greater value for money (therefore costing around £23 per year).
When can I use a Railcard?
Again this depends on the type of Railcard you have. Generally, all Railcards can be used for discounted train fares during Off-Peak times, weekends, and public holidays. Some, like the age-related Railcards, can be used during Peak times with a minimum fare, and the Disabled Persons Railcard can be used at any time.
Which tickets can you save money on?
It varies depending on the type of Railcard you have, as some are valid for use during Peak times, but generally, as a Railcard holder you can save money on Advance tickets, Off-Peak, Standard, and First Class tickets.
