Other travel card options

Value Card

If you travel regularly on our buses, the Value Card might be the perfect choice for you. It can be used on all bus routes.

You can load the card with an amount between DKK 250 and DKK 3,000. When the balance is low, you can top up the card as many times as you like. Using a Value Card gives you a 15% discount on bus fares, and the card itself costs DKK 50.

You can purchase the card at our harbor terminal in Tórshavn or at our main office in Tvøroyri. If you want to personalize your card with your name, we recommend doing so, as it allows you to recover your card and its balance if it gets lost.

Alternatively, you can buy a Value Card without your name on it from any of our buses and ferries. However, if this card is lost, we cannot issue a refund since we have no way of verifying the card's balance.

 

Monthly Card

If you travel frequently on the same bus route, such as commuting to and from work every weekday, the Monthly Card is the ideal option for you.

The Monthly Card is strictly personal, featuring your name and birth date. You can purchase this card at the harbor terminal in Tórshavn or at our main office in Tvøroyri for DKK 50. This card offers significant discounts for regular travel on our buses.

The card is valid for 30 days from your first trip. After the 30 days have passed, you can refill your card on all buses.

Please note that once you start using your Monthly Card, the money will not be refunded if you lose the card. However, if the card is lost, you can transfer the remaining days to a new card and pay the difference for a new Monthly Card. Unused monthly credit can also be transferred to a new card. The card itself costs DKK 50.

 

School Cards

Ask your school if you can get a School Card for travel. If you are in upper secondary school or higher education, you can apply for a travel card to commute between your home and school.

If your application is approved, you can travel to and from school for free with SSL.

The card will be sent to your school by post. There is a maximum waiting time of 14 days after the school has confirmed your travel card application. Please note that this does not include potential postal delays.

If students do not have a valid further education travel card when traveling, they will need to pay the normal fare. However, students will receive a 20% discount if they have valid student identification.

 

Sports travel cards

The national sports confederation pays for sports travel to Suðuroy as well as on board all our ferries. Please contact your sport team for more information.

 

Business Cards

Businesses can purchase business cards from us for travel and other purchases on our busses and ferries.
