Since May 2022, it has been possible to pay for train tickets with Chèques-Vacances. Here’s how.
As part of its extensive modernization plan, SNCF had the good idea of integrating Chèques-Vacances into its digital payment methods to ease the financial burden for families during their holidays.
Via the SNCF Connect app or the official website, you can book all leisure trips on TGV INOUI, Intercités, TER, within France as well as to Switzerland, Italy, and Germany. Not all of Europe for now. To do this, follow these steps:
- First, install the “Chèque-Vacances” app on your smartphone and have your personal code ready to validate the payment later
- Book on the SNCF Connect website or app
- Select “Chèque-Vacances Connect” as the payment method
- Receive a notification from the Chèque-Vacances app on your smartphone
- After logging into the app, find the amount to pay, and adjust it if desired starting from 20 euros
- Confirm the payment with your personal code
- If needed, top up the amount with a credit card
- Receive a confirmation email of your order
In case of exchange or cancellation, a full refund will be offered in the form of a digital gift voucher, valid for one year on SNCF Connect and at station channels. For more information: www.cheque-vacances-connect.com
