Travel with ease with a mobile Pass
Everything on one app
Plan your journey, keep track of your trips and show mobile tickets straight from your device with a mobile Pass on the Rail Planner app. No need to wait for delivery – you can load your mobile Pass into the app as soon as you get your order confirmation email.
Paper-free, always in your pocket
Your Interrail Pass is precious, but you don’t need to worry about losing or damaging your mobile Pass. It's always on your phone, so you can set off on a spontaneous day trip or save money with our Pass discounts and benefits, wherever you are.
Quick and easy ticket inspection
Your mobile Pass makes ticket inspection easier than ever. Instead of filling in your paper travel diary, simply add journeys from the app’s planner to your mobile Pass before you board, then show your mobile ticket to the inspector in just a few taps.
Have you updated your device?
The Interrail Mobile Pass is supported on Apple devices iOS 15.0 and later and Android devices 6.0 and later. Make sure to update your phone before downloading the Rail Planner app.
How does a mobile Pass work?
Travelling with a mobile Pass is simple – all you need is your phone, our Rail Planner app, and an internet connection (at least once every 3 days). Just choose a mobile Pass at checkout, and we'll send you a Pass number in your order confirmation email to load your Pass into the app.
Activating your mobile Pass
Follow the instructions in your order confirmation email to add your Pass to the app and activate it so it's ready for travel. You can do both steps at once, or you can add your Pass to the app and activate it later – it's up to you.
Travelling with your mobile Pass
Use the planner to search for journeys you want to take. Tap to save them to My Trip, where you can see an overview of your travel plans. When you're ready to take a train, tap to add that journey to your Pass, and it will appear on your ticket in My Pass ready for inspection on board.
Change of currency
You cannot change the currency once you have a Pass in your cart. Remove the Pass, and then change the currency on the website header.
