Train trips with a travel card
Place your travel card in the front reader of the ticket device. A ticket purchased in the Nella.fi online service will activate on the device. Travel card balance will update onto your Nella.fi account within 24 hours.
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.
