Once you've bought your Swiss Travel Pass on Klook, you'll get your e-ticket as a PDF. Though it is not required, you may also print out the PDF if you wish. The train conductor will scan your QR code during travel.

Yes, in 2026, the Swiss Travel Pass is primarily a digital product, though a "print-at-home" option still exists for those who prefer physical backups. When you purchase the pass online, you receive an email containing a PDF with a QR code. This code is your "ticket" for the entire Swiss Travel System, including trains, buses, boats, and many mountain excursions. Most travelers find it easiest to simply load the PDF onto their smartphone or add the QR code to their Apple or Google Wallet. When a ticket inspector board the train, you simply show them the QR code on your screen; they will scan it to verify your name and the validity dates of your pass. You are also required to carry a valid ID (such as a passport) to prove you are the person named on the pass. This digital transition has made traveling through Switzerland significantly more efficient, as you no longer need to validate your pass at a station machine or worry about losing a physical paper document during your journey through the Alps.
