Business travel subscriptions
If you regularly travel by public transport for work, you could save money by adding a subscription to your NS-Business Card. You can use all the features of an NS-Business Card and have lower costs due to a fixed monthly subscription fee.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the NS-Business Card and NS Flex?
With both the NS-Business Card and NS Flex, you travel on account, so there’s no need to load credit onto your card. The difference is that the NS-Business Card is specifically designed for business travellers. It provides a single, itemized VAT invoice and gives access to additional mobility services, such as international train travel and shared mobility options. NS Flex is intended for personal use and does not provide a VAT invoice. If you're self-employed, the NS-Business Card is often a convenient choice if you want to keep your business travel expenses easy to manage.
What door-to-door services can I use?
The NS Business Card gives you - in addition to train, bus, streetcar and metro - access to a wide range of door-to-door services. Which services you as a cardholder can actually use depends on the agreements between your employer and NS. Only the NS contact person in your organization can switch door-to-door services on and off.
This agreement lays down which services have been activated (and for whom). For example, you may be able to use all our services, whereas an employee of another organisation may only be able to travel by train, bus, tram, metro and OV-fiets. To find out which services have been activated for your NS-Business Card, check out your Mijn NS Zakelijk account:
Log into
Mijn NS Zakelijk for cardholders and click on 'My NS-Business Card'.Check whether a service is on or off. Good to know: 'on' means you can use the service. You only pay when you actually use the service.
If a service is off, ask your employer to turn this service on in
Mijn NS Zakelijk for Contact person under 'Manage cards and cardholders' or do this yourself as a enterpreneur.
Do you use NS Go?
Then you can add the service yourself.
What is the notice period for an NS-Business Card subscription?
We implement a termination of a subscription immediately after the first 30 days. It is important that the cardholder 'collects' the termination at the NS card machine or one of the OV-chipkaart service points. After terminating the subscription in Mijn NS Zakelijk, the cardholder may have to wait 30 minutes before the termination can be picked up. That person will receive an email with more information about picking up the termination.
How long am I tied to the Dal subscription?
After the first month, you can cancel your Dal subscription daily or change to a different one.
For example, if you know that you won't be travelling for a few weeks, you can change to the NS-Business Card without a subscription for that period (if you don't travel, you don't pay). Or maybe you will be travelling a fixed route more often anyway. Then the Traject Vrij subscription is probably more advantageous for you. How's that for flexible!
Can employees travel internationally with the NS-Business Card?
Yes, employees can also travel internationally with the NS-Business Card. International train tickets can be booked easily through NS Zakelijk, and the travel costs are included on your organization’s regular invoice. This gives you a clear overview of both domestic and international travel expenses in one place.
What are the main benefits of Traject op Maat?
A low-cost subscription for travelling 2 to 3 days a week on a fixed route.
A flexible fare combined with budget assurance.
40% discount on journeys outside your route, outside peak hours.
40% Samenreiskorting in off-peak hours for 3 fellow travellers.
Traject op Maat can be cancelled daily after one month.
Why can't I order an OV Vrij subscription anymore?
Our bus, tram, and metro partners have informed us that they will be discontinuing BTM subscriptions. As a result, OV Vrij subscriptions will be discontinued as of January 1, 2026. These products will no longer be available for purchase as of December 1, 2025.
