Forging bonds with FAIRTIQ for your convenience and self-preservation

In the bustling city of Dresden, a new addition to the public transportation landscape has been making waves. The Verkehrsverbund Oberelbe (VVO) and Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe (DVB) have introduced the FAIRTIQ app, a modern and convenient solution for ticketing.

Upon arrival at a station or stop, passengers simply need to swipe the FAIRTIQ app to end the cost recording. This straightforward action ensures that the correct fare is calculated without any hassle. New users who download the app will also receive a €3 starting credit, making the transition to digital ticketing even smoother.

The FAIRTIQ app is designed to provide the best value for money. If multiple single trips are made within a day, the system intelligently recognises if a day ticket would be more cost-effective and charges only that price. This feature ensures that passengers are always getting the best deal.

However, it's important to note that the app does not currently offer any specific promotions or credit for referring new users. But, from September 1 to November 30, users who refer new passengers to FAIRTIQ will receive a €3 credit as a token of appreciation.

The app is not just for train, tram, or bus travel. Passengers can also use it for bicycle transport with a simple swipe. The app allows passengers to check-in and check-out easily, and FAIRTIQ automatically reminds passengers to check out using smartphone sensors at the end of their journey.

With over 52,000 passengers having downloaded the app, and over 5,000 using it regularly, it's clear that the FAIRTIQ app is making a positive impact. Passengers using the app are cashless and always have the right ticket, ensuring a seamless and stress-free journey.

The FAIRTIQ app is currently available for travel in the VVO area only. The app determines the route and calculates the appropriate ticket automatically, so no action is required from passengers to determine the route or calculate the appropriate ticket. Upon check-in with the FAIRTIQ app before boarding a train, tram, or bus, passengers are given a valid ticket for the entire VVO area.

In Dresden, if you travel a round trip within a tariff zone and consider taking a third trip later in the day, you only need to pay €3.40 for the first and second trips, and the rest of the day's trips will be charged at the daily ticket price of €9. This feature provides added convenience for regular commuters.

While no specific information about pricing for round trips within a tariff zone and additional trips later in the day was provided, it's clear that the FAIRTIQ app is revolutionising public transportation in Dresden. Sandrina Sperlich, a person mentioned in the specified news article, is one of the many passengers benefiting from this innovative app.

In conclusion, the FAIRTIQ app offers a convenient, cost-effective, and cashless solution for passengers in Dresden. With its automatic ticket calculation, easy check-in and check-out system, and bicycle transport options, the FAIRTIQ app is set to transform the way passengers travel in the city.
