The answer to your question...

Paying without iDEAL

Are you unable or unwilling to pay for your train ticket iDEAL? In that case, you can use your credit card.

Deferred payment

No valid ticket on the train or behind the gates at a station? If so, the conductor or Safety and Service assistant will sell you a ticket, in addition to the legal fine (statutory increase) of €50. Unable to pay in cash on the spot? If so, you will be granted a deferred payment option if you are able to identify yourself.

Correction fee and boarding fee

If we don't know which stations you boarded or left the train, for example because you forgot to check in or out and didn't correct it in time, then we will charge you a correction fee or a boarding fee. See which situation applies to you.
