Smartcard

No more ticket queues. No more paper tickets.

As part of our response to COVID-19, you cannot load tickets to your Smartcard at booking offices, for the time being. You can still buy and load tickets at ticket vending machines in our stations, or buy online and load tickets onto your Smartcard using the ScotRail App.

Buy tickets online or at any ScotRail station booking office or ticket vending machine. Load onto your free Smartcard, then go.
