The Deutschland-Ticket cannot be purchased via PayPal.

The SEPA direct debit payment method is temporarily not available for new customers. RMV customers who have already paid by direct debit can continue to do so. However, it is not possible to change your bank details for ticket purchases in RMVgo. All other payment methods are still available.
It is also possible to purchase tickets with a SEPA direct debit mandate via the RMV TicketShop or the RMV sales offices. Please note the corresponding order deadlines.

Due to an increase in fraud cases, the direct debit payment method in RMVgo has been temporarily deactivated for new customers. The RMV will soon introduce an online activation for SEPA direct debits in the digital payment process in order to be able to offer this payment method again in RMVgo as quickly as possible.

RMV customers who have already paid by direct debit can continue to do so. However, changing your bank details is temporarily not possible for purchases in RMVgo.

The tickets are stored in the app on the smartphone. You can therefore always show them, even if you have no mobile phone reception. The tickets are stored in the lower tab under the menu item "Tickets" > "My tickets". In the ticket detail view of an active ticket, you can open the control view via the button contained therein. Please note: If you have purchased a ticket while logged in, you must also be logged in to show the ticket in RMVgo. You can see whether you are logged in or not via the menu item "More". If you are logged in, your user name will appear.

In the "My tickets" overview, the last ten tickets purchased are stored in chronological order.

The RMV MobileTicket also contains the first and last name of the RMV MobileTicket user. This information is requested during the ordering process in RMVgo. An official photo ID (e.g. identity card, passport, driving licence) must be carried for the ticket control and shown to the control staff if required.

According to the Common Conditions of Carriage, every passenger is obliged to have a valid ticket when starting a journey and to be able to show it at all times. This also applies to the RMV-MobileTicket. The excuse "my battery is empty" is not valid during a check and leads to an increased transport charge levied by the control staff.

The tickets are stored in the app on your mobile phone. So you can always show them, even if you don't have mobile reception at the time of the check. The tickets are stored under "Tickets". The last ten tickets purchased are stored there in chronological order.

It is an offer for users of the RMV-MobileTicket, with which customers pay for their ticket purchases for single journeys (including short distance and single supplement) via the app from a previously deposited credit of 40 euros and receive a discount of 20% for this.

You must be registered with the customer portal meinRMV. You can register directly in RMVgo or at www.rmv.de. It is not possible to use the RMV-PrepaidDiscount without a meinRMV user account.

Log in to RMVgo with your meinRMV user account. There you will find the item RMV-PrepaidDiscount in the menu. Here you can top up your credit and view your current PrepaidDiscount credit balance. If you have topped up your PrepaidDiscount credit via RMVgo, you will also receive an invoice by e-mail.

You can top up via RMVgo using the means of payment already stored in your meinRMV user account (credit card or SEPA direct debit). You can always pay 40 euros per top-up into your PrepaidDiscount credit account. A maximum of 200 euros, i.e. 5 payments of 40 euros each, can be deposited. If you want to top up 80 euros, for example, you have to make 2 separate payments.

If there is a remaining credit balance that is lower than the price of the selected ticket, the selected ticket cannot be paid for with the PrepaidDiscount credit. You then have the option of topping up new credit (at least 40 euros) or having the remaining credit refunded.

Yes, you can also have your RMV-PrepaidDiscountt credit refunded in the app menu. To do this, go to "My account" / "RMV-PrepaidDiscount" / "Refund now" in RMVgo. The remaining credit will then be refunded to the pament method you have deposited with my RMV.

If you do not use the RMV-PrepaidDiscount within a period of 12 months (e.g. no credit top-up, no retrieval of tickets despite existing credit), then your PrepaidDiscount credit will initially be deactivated. However, you will automatically receive a reminder e-mail 14 days before deactivation (or before the end of the 12 months). Please then contact RMV Customer Communication via our online service portal if your remaining credit has been deactivated. RMV Customer Communication can then immediately initiate the payment of your remaining credit. Your claim to payment of the remaining credit is subject to the statutory limitation period of § 195 BGB.

Select your ticket in RMVgo via the connection search as usual. If you want to buy a short-distance ticket, single ticket or single supplement, you can select RMV-PrepaidDiscount under Payment method. You will then be shown the discounted price and your credit balance. By clicking on "Buy ticket now", the ticket price will be debited from your RMV-PrepaidDiscount credit and you will receive the desired RMV MobileTicket. You can use the ticket as usual.

You can buy short-distance tickets, single tickets and the single supplement with a 20% discount. All other tickets such as day or monthly tickets always include a discount compared to the single ticket and are therefore not available with the RMV-PrepaidDiscount.

Also excluded is the purchase of a single ticket with a BahnCard, as this also already includes a discount.

No. Unfortunately, this option no longer exists.

Tickets purchased via the RMV-PrepaidDiscount will not appear on your monthly RMV MobileTicket invoice as they are charged against your PrepaidDiscount credit. However, individual receipts can be created for tickets that were paid for with the RMV-PrepaidDiscount. You can also obtain these in RMVgo.
