About this app

Who said that trains and cars can’t be friends? With P+Rail, these two modes of transport can be combined with ease. 🚂🚗💕

With the SBB P+Rail app, you can pay for your parking quickly and cashfree. The P+Rail app unifies SBB P+Rail parking spaces with those of ten partner railways (BLS, RhB, RBS, TPF, SOB, MGB, OeBB, AB, AVA and Zentralbahn). Parkingpay parking spaces and a large number of parking spaces from municipalities throughout Switzerland round off the largest Swiss parking offer in one app.

And here’s why the SBB P+Rail app is so simple and fast:

The app always knows exactly where your nearest parking space is, so you don’t need to go to the information board.

Extra information about the parking spaces is displayed for each location, such as the number of electric car charging stations or important restrictions.

If you make a mistake while booking, you can easily cancel your parking payment independently within the first few minutes.

You can access an overview of your active, expired and refunded parking tickets.

You can store several number plates and save your personal favourite locations in the quick selection view.

Already using the SBB Mobile app for searching the timetable or purchasing tickets? You can use your SwissPass login for the SBB P+Rail app too. In future, you will be able to use your stored payment methods in both apps – wherever and whenever you are on the move.

Make sure you have a spot: there is a binding reservation option for 30 busy locations – find it easily in the app menu.

Ratings and reviews

Debit and credit card payment are both broken. I tried both types of cards, received notifications from my bank that the cards were being checked so I definitely entered the details correctly, but when I tried to pay for parking it said there was an error with charging my card.

Horrible. Really late now. They changed it and it disappeared completely. Then I reinstalled and it sold me a ticket for the wrong parking. Then I realised but it would only sell me a day ticket for 15chf. Had to get off the bus and go back. Finally worked out how to use it but it's really bad. Good reviews mostly for the old version I think.

I thought it was a great app making my life easier paying in advance and cashless but now suddenly won't accept my preferred payment method, Reka which is annoying as the SBB app still works without problem with Reka payments. The other problem that started the same time is when I tap on preferred parking place it simply shuts the app down.
