A Digital Railcard can save you at least 1/3 off a wide variety of tickets including some of those bought for journeys using Thameslink Railway. Most railcards cost £30 for a year and can be purchased on our app or online. Whilst we can't sell Digital Railcards at our stations, you can still get a Railcard from your local ticket office, but this will be issued as a physical card.

Find out all about the different types of railcards and see which one suits you best using the handy information below.

If you have a Key Smartcard with keyGo, you can also add your railcard to your keyGo account. Easily Pay-as-you-go with your Key Smartcard, and we will discount your fare on your keyGo journeys.
