The Two Together Railcard is a discount card that allows you and another person to get 1/3 off rail travel for a year when you travel together across the National Rail network. The Railcard discount is valid on Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak, Super Off-Peak Single and Return and Advance tickets throughout Britain.
The Two Together Railcard costs £30 and is valid for 12 months.
Anyone aged 16+ can use a Two Together Railcard – the only requirement is that you must travel together with the other cardholder for the discount to apply. Although it's often thought of as a 'couples Railcard', it's also great for friends, family members, flatmates or colleagues who regularly travel together.
A Two Together Railcard can be used to buy discounted tickets for travel from 09:30 Mondays to Fridays, and at any time on Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays. The only time you can't use your Two Together Railcard is at morning peak times, i.e. before 09:30 Monday to Friday. To see the full list of tickets a Two Together Railcard discount is valid for, visit our Railcards terms of use guide.

Yes. Although your Railcard will live in your Trainline App, it can still be used with tickets bought elsewhere.
A couple of weeks ago we were planning a trip to London at the weekend and we were looking for cheaper train tickets when we came across the Two Together Railcard.
The fare at the time would have been £38 but with the Two Together card, we could save £13 on our first journey. As we often travel by rail and plan trips to Bristol, Norwich, and Exeter before Christmas it was an easy investment to make – we’d make our £30 outlay back in just two trips, bargain!!
Buying the Railcard with Trainline was easy and straightforward as well. In a couple of minutes, we had input our details, uploaded photos (passport-style but not so formal), and downloaded the card to the Trainline app for use.
For the savings alone – an easy 5-star experience!
