Period tickets

A period ticket is the most economic choice for regular users of public transport. It allows free travel within the validity of the ticket. Only during the night fare hours between 2am and 4.30am the ticket is not valid. When using a period ticket, you only need to show your Travel Card to a card reader on buses without touching the reader. The reader’s light and audible signals tell you whether your card has been successfully registered or not. 

Travel within one municipality or the entire region

You can get a regional period ticket which allows free travel on all buses, trams, commuter trains, the metro and Suomenlinna ferry in the validity area of the ticket. If you choose an internal period ticket for Helsinki, Espoo/Kauniainen, Vantaa, Kerava or Kirkkonummi, you can also travel freely on all modes of transport but only within the municipality in question. 

General period ticket for non-residents

General period tickets can be purchased by anyone regardless of the home municipality.  General period tickets are more expensive than period tickets sold to residents of the Helsinki metropolitan area.

You can also load value on your Travel Card and use it for purchasing individual tickets.  You can use the value for paying the night fare (period tickets are not valid during the night fare hours), or for paying the fares of your companions.

Easy and economical direct debit ticket.
