eSIM and SIM packs for rail and coach operators
Add a data plan to the e-ticket for lines that cross a border or end at an airport. Keep SIM packs at the ticket desk for passengers who buy on the day.
Short answer: Your e-ticket already knows the line, the date, and the countries on the route. Add one plan that fits the trip to the confirmation page and the e-ticket email, and keep SIM packs at the ticket desk for walk-up passengers. The passenger pays in your checkout or at the desk.

Before you choose
Short answers to the common questions. The partner agreement sets the final terms.
Which lines should get the offer?
Start with lines that cross a border or end at an airport. Domestic lines with mostly local passengers rarely need a plan.
Does one plan cover a line through several countries?
Yes. A regional plan covers the countries on the line, so the passenger installs once before departure.
What do we earn?
You buy at a partner price and set the retail price. Commercial terms are agreed privately.
Does the plan work during the trip?
Yes, on the mobile networks along the route. The signal can drop in tunnels and remote areas, so the passenger installs before departure.
