How do I use the travelcard?
To use the travelcard, you must have a valid ticket (single ticket or period ticket) or pay-as-you-go credit on the card.
If you have several tickets and pay-as-you-go credit on your card, the ticket validator will charge the first valid ticket in the following order:
- Period ticket with the correct zones for the section of the route. This may be all types of period tickets from 24 hours to 90 days.
- Single ticket with the correct zones for the section of the route
- Pay-as-you-go credit with automatic deduction providing there is sufficient credit on your card and the section of the route has been set as a pre-defined route. This means one of your favourites with zones where you travel often. If you generally travel within one zone (e.g. Tromsø municipality), such a pre-defined route in the Tromsø zone may be used on all journeys in the entire municipality.
If a pre-defined route has not been added, the driver/crew/sales outlet/contact centre must enter the travel section and charge the card manually.
Do you use Tromskortet?
It is still okay to use the old travel card named Tromskortet on all of the Svipper-buses.

If you have lost your travelcard, we will refund your credit balance providing you can show a receipt.
