2. For Brussels… and beyond

Did you know you can buy train tickets for all of Belgium in Floya? That’s right! No need to switch apps for your weekend at the coast. Just enter your departure station and destination, and you’re good to go.

Planning to hop on the Kusttram once you get there? You can grab a 10-journey De Lijn ticket directly in Floya to travel at a lower price.

3. Personal or business: why not both?

You can add multiple payment cards to your Floya account and set a default one before paying.

Perfect if you can expense your weekday business trips but want to charge your personal weekend outings to a different card.

No need for a Villo! subscription or account to take advantage of this offer. Your Floya account is all you need, giving you the flexibility to grab a bike whenever you miss your bus, or the sun decides to show up.

5. Tap & save

Paying for your STIB-MIVB trips with just a tap of your phone is cheaper than buying a paper ticket! Simply activate your Apple Wallet or Google Pay, and you’re all set.

Prefer using your bank card? That works too! Just tap your contactless card on a grey validator, and it becomes your ticket.
