All full-time students aged 17 and over can buy a 30-day season ticket with a student discount from the Nysse Mobiili app. Studen't information must be found from the Finnish National Agency for Education’s Studyinfo. To authenticate, you will need your online banking credentials or a mobile certificate.

Yes. Inspectors work from dawn to dusk on weekdays, weekends and public holidays.
The city of Tampere is responsible for the ticket inspection of Nysse tram and bus trips as an official activity. On train journeys, inspection activities are handled by VR.
The zones of a value ticket can be changed in the Nella online service when purchasing a new ticket. The loading points and customer service can change the zones without purchases.
If you have an account-based travel card, you can change the default zones for your value ticket on the Nella.fi online service without having to make a new purchase. See the Nella.fi instructions for managing your account-based travel card.
The zones of a season ticket can not be changed during the ongoing season. However, the ticket can be refunded, if necessary, at customer service. Then you can purchase and/or start a new season ticket with the required zones. The remaining days of the ticket can be refunded (-7 € handling fee).
If your travel card has a pending season ticket with alternative zones, the ticket will start if you travel on the differ zones from the current one.
If you need to change the zones for just one trip, you can do that shen you show your travel card to the card reader:
- Before using the card in a reader device, select MAKSA POIKKEUSMATKA on the screen.
- Select the zones you need for your trip. For example, a trip from Nokia via Tampere to Lempäälä includes zones A, B and C.
- Insert your travel card into the reader. The exception setting also applies to transfers. After your time for transfer is finished, the setting must be made again if necessary.
Yes, if there is room for it. Enter the bus with your bicycle through the middle doors. We do not recommend bringing a bicycle during rush hours (e.g. commute hours and school journeys).
You have to buy a single ticket according to your age group. On the bus, the driver determines the size of the vehicle to be transported, so it is a good idea to be prepared for payment.
No you can't. The mobile ticket starts at the time of the ticket purchase, so you should buy it right before the trip, before boarding.

Yes, if you travel within the Nysse zones.
Select the required zones when purchasing value for your travel card, as the zones cannot be changed using the station platform ticket device. Ticket zones can be changed without purchasing a ticket at a sales point or, if you have an account-based travel card, in the Nella.fi online service.
If the zones on your travel card are not suitable for your trip, you can
- change the zones on the bus or tram ticket device before the train journey. For instructions on how to make a trip outside the default zones, see the travel card manual.
- buy a ticket from the Nysse Mobiili app
- choose a VR ticket. Please note that VR tickets do not include the right to travel on Nysse buses or trams.
