How does it work? Download: Once purchased, you will receive a link to download your M-Pass to your mobile phone from our distributor’s central system. You can do this nearer your departure date in case your first date of travel changes.
Travel: Once downloaded, you are ready to travel! Simply present your M-Pass to any ticket barrier with a barcode reader on it (as seen in picture) or to any member of staff who asks to see it at the side gate or on the train.
What if there is no barcode ticket reader?
Not every station has barcode readers installed on their ticket barriers. If you come to a station where there is no barcode reader on the ticket barrier, this is fine. Simply go to the side gate and the member of staff will either scan your M-Pass or visually inspect it and let you through.
What if the train manager doesn't have a barcode ticket reader? Barcode ticket readers are currently being rolled out across the network. When train managers do have a barcode ticket reader, simply present your BritRail M-Pass for them to scan (as seen in picture.) If they do not have a barcode ticket reader, still show them your phone as the M-Pass has been designed to be visually inspected by train managers allowing you to travel seamlessly.
Will you stop paper ticket BritRail Passes?
Both BritRail M-Passes and BritRail Paper Passes will be in circulation for customers to purchase. It is likely once most people have migrated to an M-Pass as first option that Paper Passes will be faded out.
