Credit card payments – but secure!

You can pay conveniently for your tickets and reservations with your credit card. Just enter your credit card number, the validity date and your credit card verification number in the appropriate fields of the booking window.

You can store your credit card data in "My Bahn" under "Manage my data" for fast and secure booking. If you do not want to store a credit card in your profile, you can re-enter this data for each booking.

The verification number process

Entering the credit card verification number increases the level of security for your order even further. It is a 3* or 4**-digit number sequence printed on your card (i.e. not a relief imprint), which is not found on normal payment documents. This additional query ensures that no credit card data obtained by deceit, e.g. from a payment document which has been thrown away, is used improperly. The verification number is not stored in our system and has to be re-entered with every order.

* Master Card, VISA, JCB, Diners Club: The last three digits of the number in the signature area on the back of the card
** American Express: The four-digit number to the right above the imprint on the front of the card
