Half Fare Cards, I got mine on my SBB iPhone App. If you have the app, I think you can buy it like any other ticket. It’s 120 CHF, and you pick the start date for a month. This app is excellent it allows you to on the Timetable to select train, bus even lift and ship departures and destinations with a simple visual map. On the road, it will track your location and give you timetable access immediately around your location. You can buy your e-tickets on the app. You can change the dates it searches out as far as our August trip. Though you can only buy half-fare tickets for the most current months.
