Customers will just need to tap their Tallinja Card when boarding the ferry and the system will automatically charge the discounted fare to their Tallinja account.

When buying your ticket with the app or through the website and paying with a Tallinja Card, please remember to present your Tallinja Card at the ferry for validation. The fare will be deducted from your Tallinja Card when this is scanned at the ferry.
