Travel with a discount

Special discounts for children, students and travellers over the age of 65

Are you 65+ or younger than 12 years old? Then you are entitled to travel with a 34% age discount on all buses, trams and metros in the Netherlands. You have always had this option with your personal OV chip card, and now also when you travel with your debit card (or credit card).

As a student you can also use the student travel product. We list the various discounts for you.

34% discount for those over 65 years old

If you have a personal OV-chipkaart, you automatically get 34% discount on your fare. This way you travel extra cheap on tram and bus. No personal OV-chipkaart yet? Apply for it now. 

To take advantage of the age discount when traveling with your debit card, you must first register your debit card.
