We are happy to answer your question . In the selection below, you will find a list of frequently asked questions and related answers regarding MVV-MobileTickets sorted by topics.
You need a smartphone with internet access as well as the free MVV-App. A one-time registration is required for full use of the MVV Ticketshop, which can be done in advance. You can purchase a ticket either by directly using the ticket shop or by selecting the ticket via MVV journey planner. When you enter your trip information, the app will recommend the best ticket for your requested trip. After confirmation of the payment details, the ticket can be used directly in the app. The purchase amount is debited.
The following tickets are currently available as MobileTickets: Day Tickets (incl. the CityTourCard, the München Card, the AirportPLUS-Tickets, the Bicycle Day Ticket and the Oberland-MVV-Ticket), Single tickets (incl. Short Trip Tickets) and the Anschlussticket (valid in combination with a season ticket). Registered customers can also purchase the Deutschland-Ticket, Stripe Ticket and season tickets (IsarCard Weekly, IsarCard Monthly, IsarCard9Uhr, IsarCard65).
The MVV App including the MVV-Ticketshop is available for free on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
The registration for the MobileTicket takes place directly in the app or on the MVV website, by entering your name, date of birth, address and e-mail address, as well as a password. The customer account can be used for both the MobileTicket and the OnlineTicket.
Yes. This is possible if you pay by credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. However, you cannot purchase the Stripe Ticket and season tickets without a registration.
Yes, you can. You will have to enter the full name and the date of birth of that person when purchasing the ticket. In the event of a ticket inspection, the ticket owner has to present the ticket and an official photo ID (e.g. identity card, passport).
Please note that purchased tickets cannot be transferred to other devices or the number of transfers is limited for security reasons. If it is not possible for you to travel with the person you have bought the ticket for, the ticket must be purchased on the other person's device. Showing a screenshot is not allowed.
When configuring the ticket click on the item "Me". Then you can enter other ticket owners by clicking on the “+”; for future trips you can directly select the saved details of a person from the list.
For group tickets, only one name has to be on the ticket. This ticket holder must always be part of the group and present the ticket in an inspection. The names of fellow travelers do not have to be on the ticket.
No, purchased tickets are assigned to a specific end device and cannot be transferred to other end devices.
An exception to this are weekly and monthly tickets, which can be transferred up to twice to another device.
Day tickets and season tickets can be purchased up to 7 days before the first day of travel. Single Tickets and the Stripe Ticket cannot be bought in advance and their validity start date cannot therefore be changed. The Deutschland-Ticket can be purchased up to 30 days in advance.
According to the tariff regulations, all MobileTickets have to be purchased and completely downloaded before boarding the vehicle or before crossing the platform barriers at stations.
You can pay for the MobileTicket by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) or via Apple Pay or Google Pay. Registered customers can also use the direct debit procedure (bank account within the European Union).
1. During the order process.
2. Within the app via the settings / info under the menu item Tickets. To open the settings / info and the menu item “Means of Payment”, please click on the avatar symbol on the top right.
3. On the online shop. Please visit the page www.mvv-muenchen.de/ticketshop, log in with your usual login data and select “Means of payment” on the left side.
This company is a German financial services provider that processes all payment transactions for Mobile- and OnlineTickets on behalf of the Münchner Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund GmbH (MVV).
To ensure that no one misuses the SEPA Direct Debit Payment with stolen or falsified data, you must identify yourself when registering your bank account details. This is done once via your online banking with the so-called "Bank-Ident" procedure, which is provided by Verimi. Please have your online banking access data to hand.
We hope you understand that we can only offer the SEPA Direct Debit Payment if you have successfully identified yourself. If you are unable to identify yourself, please use another payment method such as credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
If you need help with the verification process or have any questions, please contact our financial services provider LogPay directly:

Direct debits for Mobiletickets are always triggered by our financial services provider on the next working day. If necessary, several orders are combined. Depending on the bank, the debit will then appear on your account with a time delay. Due to holidays and weekends, the transaction may not appear until several days later.
When you first enter your credit card information, your details need to be verified. The data is sent to the card issuer and the amount of 1 EUR is requested and authorized. This will usually expire within two weeks and the money will not be taken from your account.
All MobileTickets you purchase are listed in your customer account. Simply log in to your customer account to print out the invoice for any tickets you have purchased: ticketshop.mvv-muenchen.de/index.php/personal_data/orderList
Alternatively, you can request the invoice for a single order directly from the app. Please click on the corresponding button of a ticket that is currently open or click on the ticket in the overview "Tickets" or “History” for some seconds. Either you can open the receipt directly or you can send a link by Email.
If you bought a ticket without registration, you can only download a purchase receipt directly from the app.
MobileTickets cost exactly the same as regular tickets purchased at ticket machines, sales points, kiosks and on MVV regional buses. Reducing the fare of OnlineTickets and MobileTickets would decrease the overall fare income. This loss of fare income would have to be compensated by additionally raising the ticket prices for all MVV customers.
In the event of a ticket inspection, the MobileTicket within the app as well as your official photo ID (e.g. identity card, passport) has to be presented. The inspector will scan and automatically check the barcode displayed in the app with an electronic device. If you fail to present your ticket or ID, you will be liable for a penalty fare.
MobileTickets are personalized tickets, meaning they also feature the customer’s name. In order to make sure that the passenger’s name is identical to the name stated on the ticket, you must carry an official photo ID (e.g. identity card, passport) with you on your journey.
When purchasing the Stripe Ticket, you have to enter the number of stripes you would like to validate for an immediate journey (max. 8 stripes). A stripe ticket cannot be purchased in advance. You will automatically have to purchase 10 stripes and the remaining stripes are stored as credit in your account.
You can use your stripes by selecting “Credit” under Tickets/Credit/History, clicking on Stripe Ticket and setting the details for the next trip. Alternatively, you can also use your credit via the journey planner or choosing the stripe ticket under “Buy tickets”.
Yes, this is possible if the same account is used on the devices. However, once the stripes are validated, the valid ticket has to be presented on the device you bought the ticket with. You will not be able to validate stripes for other people on your device unless you travel with them.
When configuring the ticket click on the item "Me". Then you can enter other ticket owners by clicking on the “+”; for future trips you can directly select the saved details of a person from the list.
Please note that purchased tickets cannot be transferred to other devices. If it is not possible for you to travel with the person you have bought the ticket for, the ticket must be purchased on the other person's device. Showing a screenshot is not allowed.
If you don’t have enough credit for the selected number of stripes, the existing stripes will be combined with stripes from a new Stripe Ticket which you will be offered in this case. During confirmation, you can see if your credit is enough for the trip or if a new stripe ticket with 10 stripes has been charged.
Your remaining stripes will still be valid for an unlimited amount of time.
Important: As of January 1st 2025, the federal and state governments have decided to adjust the price of the Deutschland-Ticket. The monthly subscription price will rise from €49 to €58.
If you have purchased your Deutschland-Ticket subscription in the MVV-Ticketshop, you do not need to take any action. Your subscription will continue to run automatically in 2025 at the new monthly price of €58.
Note: Even after the price adjustment, you can still cancel your Deutschland-Ticket subscription as usual by the 10th of the month to the end of the month. Please note, however, that after the 10th of the month you can only cancel your subscription at the end of the following month.
If you do not agree with the price adjustment, you have the option of canceling your Deutschland-Ticket subscription until Decemer 10th 2024 at the latest so that the cancellation takes effect at the end of the year. To do so, please use the options described in the next section “How do I cancel the subscription?”.
Note: Even after the price adjustment, you can still cancel your Deutschland-Ticket subscription as usual up to the 10th of the month to the end of the month. Please note, however, that a cancellation after the 10th of a month will only take effect at the end of the following month.
If you have not canceled your subscription by Decemer 10th 2024, you automatically agree to the price adjustment. In this case, you do not need to take any further action, the subscription continues to run automatically after the price adjustment.
The subscription can be canceled at any time until the 10th of a month to the end of the month.
We recommend canceling your Deutschland Ticket subscription directly via the MVV app.
To do this, navigate to the "Ticketshop" tab in the top right-hand corner of the app and click on the profile (person symbol). Select the subscription to be canceled under "Subscriptions" and cancel it using the corresponding button.
Alternatively, the subscription ticket can also be canceled as follows:
When you purchased the Deutschland-Ticket, you received two e-mails. One e-mail confirms the purchase of the Deutschland-Ticket for the desired month. The second e-mail confirms the conclusion of the subscription. In this second e-mail you will find a link that you can use to cancel your subscription. You will find this link again in the notification about the issue of the respective ticket for the following month. If you can no longer find the e-mail with the link, you can also cancel your subscription by sending an informal e-mail to kundendialog@mvv-muenchen.de. Please state your subscription number or the order number of the subscription.
Tickets for January 2025 will be issued from mid-December 2024. The new price of €58 will therefore already be due when the January ticket is debited in mid/end December 2024 and will be deducted from the payment method you specified when purchasing the subscription.
The price adjustment from €49 to €58 is made to ensure the financial sustainability of the service in the long term. This adjustment has become necessary due to rising energy costs and the increased financing requirements of local public transport. The new price structure gives transport companies more planning security so that they can continue to offer high-quality local public transport services.
Yes, the Deutschland-Ticket is our most flexible and attractive offer. It offers you nationwide mobility on local and regional transport. Compared to the cheapest classic MVV monthly ticket (Zone M) with a validity of one year, you pay only €1 more per month with the new Deutschland-Ticket price of €58. In return, you enjoy unlimited mobility in the entire MVV area and throughout Germany.
