How you can travel

Options for travelling by bus, train, metro, and light rail are:

• Rejsekort app: Check in and out in the app and pay continuously at the same price as the physical Rejsekort
Basiskort (physical card): Check in and out at card readers at the same price as the physical Rejsekort. Choose between personal or anonymous Basiskort
Rejsebillet app: Buy single tickets, commuter cards, and special tickets in the app. Youth Card can also be issued digitally

Rest amount

If you had a balance on your Rejsekort, when the system closed on June 30, 2026, the remaining balance and any remaining card value will be automatically refunded in August 2026.

Under certain conditions, you can receive a refund for the remaining card value. The remaining card value is the value the card represents relative to when you purchased it.  
 
Conditions for refunding the remaining card value: 
 
When you purchased your personal Rejsekort, you paid 50 kroner for the card itself. 
 
A Rejsekort is valid for 5 years regardless of type. 
 
When the physical Rejsekort is deactivated, there may be some remaining validity on the card that can no longer be used.  
 
If the card was purchased on or before December 14, 2024, you can receive a refund of the proportional remaining card value. 
 
If the card was purchased on or after December 15, 2024, you will not receive a refund of the remaining card value.  
 
You will not be informed of the final amount of the remaining card value until the refund is processed in August 2026.  
The remaining card value will always be less than what you paid for the card.

Renewal

On 29 June 2026, it will still be possible to purchase a new period or add a new travel zone to an existing Commuter Card until 23:59. However, please note that card readers at stations and platforms are only updated approximately every five hours, and card readers on buses are only updated approximately once every 24 hours. Therefore, renewals via Self-Service should be completed at least 5 hours in advance (for train/metro/light rail) or 24 hours in advance (for bus) before the period is needed on your Rejsekort.

Please also note the following:

28 May 2026 at 23:59 is the last day you can check in with your physical Rejsekort on:

• buses, local trains, and light rail services in Jutland and on Funen

29 June 2026 at 23:59 is the last day you can check in with your physical Rejsekort on:

• buses, metro, local trains, and light rail services in Zealand, Lolland, Falster, and Møn

• DSB trains across Denmark and to Hyllie, Triangeln, and Malmö C in Sweden

• GoCollective trains in Jutland and on Funen

If you are travelling across the country using multiple modes of transport—for example, by train from Copenhagen to Aarhus and then continuing by bus or light rail—please note that your Rejsekort will only be valid up to Aarhus Central Station. You will therefore need to purchase an additional ticket for the rest of your journey.

Please also be aware of when you need to complete a manual renewal, depending on which type of transport you will be using if you are travelling after 28 May 2026.

You can find more information on the transport operators’ websites.

Active period 

Please note that even if you have an active period that expires after 29 June 2026, your period on your physical Rejsekort will no longer be valid once the system closes on 30 June 2026. This means you will not be able to travel using your Commuter Card after 29 June 2026.

Your renewal agreement will automatically be terminated when your commuter product on your physical Commuter Card closes on 30 June 2026

If a period has been activated, the refund will be reduced by the value of the days already used. The remaining amount will automatically be paid to your NemKonto as quickly as possible, and you will not be charged the value of eight travel days. If you close the agreement yourself before 30 June 2026, you will be charged the value of eight travel days.

Last day of travel

It is no longer possible to travel with a physical Rejsekort in buses, local trains, or light rail services in Jutland and on Funen.

On 29 June, 2026 at 23:59
, this is the last day you can check in using a physical Rejsekort on:

• DSB trains across the country and to Hyllie, Triangeln, and Malmö C in Sweden
• GoCollective trains in Jutland and Funen

Your check-in remains valid after midnight and continues to serve as a valid ticket – including if you encounter ticket inspection.
