A competition to banish your post-holiday blues, courtesy of FAIRTIQ and TWINT 

As clichéd as it sounds, none of us can stop time. Seemingly endless days of lazing by a lake or getting away from it all with a bracing hike in the mountains are numbered. For many of us, the return to our normal routine – work, school or uni – is inching ever closer. Slowly but surely, we will be hopping on public transport again, whether it is to head to the office or to the shops to stock up on essentials. But it's not all bad news. FAIRTIQ is still here to help lighten the load a little – one swipe on your smartphone is all it takes to buy the right public transport ticket, at the lowest price available. 

There is more good news in store. When you use the FAIRTIQ app over the next few weeks, not only will you enjoy hassle-free travel on public transport and save money on your fares, but you could also win a terrific prize into the bargain, courtesy of FAIRTIQ and TWINT.

How to enter the prize draw

Pay for your FAIRTIQ trips with TWINT on five different days between 18 August and 30 November 2020 and you will automatically be entered into our latest special competition. Up for grabs are 10 brand-new smartphones as well as 100 vouchers offering a CHF 10 discount on your next journey with FAIRTIQ. If TWINT is already your chosen payment method on the FAIRTIQ app, then there is nothing else you need to do. If you have a different way of paying for your tickets or have yet to use the FAIRTIQ app, don't worry! Help is at hand. Simply take the following three easy steps:

1. Download the FAIRTIQ app to your smartphone (App Store or Google Play Store)
2. Go to the FAIRTIQ main menu. Tap on 'Payment', select TWINT from the list of payment methods and set it as 'default'. If you do not yet have a TWINT app, you can download your bank’s TWINT app free of charge.
3. Buy your public transport ticket via FAIRTIQ on five different days between 18 August and 30 November 2020.

That’s all it takes to be in with the chance of winning a brand spanking new smartphone worth up to CHF 1,300 or a CHF 10 voucher for your next journey with FAIRTIQ.The prize draw will take place on 15 December 2020 and winners will be drawn at random from the participant database.

While waiting for the prize draw in December, sit back and enjoy the view from your train, bus or tram window. As you wave goodbye to the long, lazy days of summer, say hello to autumn’s dazzling kaleidoscope of colour. 

Good luck, travel well and stay safe!
