26-30 Railcard student discount

You probably already know about the 16-25 student railcard which is great for students who will travel around 3 or more times a year by train.

What you might not know is that all 26-30 year olds can enjoy the same discount with a 26-30 railcard (no student status required). This is perfect for graduates!

As with the 16-25 railcard, the cost is £30 for one year and £70 for 3 years. This is the equivalent of getting a 3 year railcard discount for £20!

This means that if you spend over £90 on train fares in a year then you will save the money back on the card easily - people save an average of £125 a year.

How it works

It's so simple to set up and use. There are three easy steps:

• Get your railcard (now available in digital format on your phone)
• Buy your discounted train tickets, selecting that you have a 26-30 railcard when booking
• Make sure you have your railcard (or phone with digital railcard) with you when you travel!

Further discounts

There is no year-round discount on the card itself, however seasonally there are often promotions which allow you to save a little off the price of the card. Keep an eye on this page for any news on that.

However once you sign up for your railcard you can access a range of third party offers such as:

• £50 off Haven holidays
• Free Gourmet Society membership (discounted meals)
• £75 off Naked Wines
• 5% off cottages.com bookings
• 50% off theatre tickets
• 20% off Virgin experience days
• and many more!
