CARD USAGE


  • It varies by partner and offer — some are one-time only (e.g. free entry to a specific attraction), while many others are unlimited during your PASS validity period (as long as the 24/48-hour window is active). Check the exact rules for each place in the "Offers" section on the website — most discounted services (like restaurants, wellness, rentals) allow repeated use if you visit multiple times within the validity.

  • The 24- or 48-hour validity begins from your first use — that is, the moment the QR code is scanned for the first time at any participating partner location.

  • Yes — it's easy to give the PASS as a gift!

    • Purchase it as usual on the website.
    • Log in to your account.
    • Go to your purchased cards, select the one you want to gift, and use the transfer option.
    • Enter the recipient's email address — the PASS (with QR code) will be sent/transferred to them.

    Important rules:

    • You can only transfer the card PASS before its first use (before anyone scans the QR code). Once activated, it's personal and non-transferable.
    • The PASS remains valid for 365 days from purchase (plenty of time to plan a trip).
    • It activates on the first scan at a partner location, starting the 24- or 48-hour countdown from that moment.
  • Digital tourist passes are generally non-refundable after purchase. If you have not activated (scanned) the PASS yet and there is a valid reason (serious illness documented etc.), contact support within 14 days.

  • Customer support: [email protected] (We usually reply within 24–48 hours; urgent issues during summer season are handled faster.)

  • Check your spam/junk folder. If still missing → write to [email protected] with your email used at purchase.
