About this app

Skyss Billett is the easiest way to purchase public transportation tickets in zone Bergen. The application allows you to purchase both single tickets and season tickets. Additionally, youth tickets (from 16 y.o. until the month you turn 20) for 30 days, valid in Hordaland county and parts of Rogaland county, can be purchased in the application. Visit www.skyss.no for more information.

Four payment methods can be used in the application:
- Mobile account, refilled via VISA/MasterCard or by money transfer.
- Credit card (VISA/MasterCard)
- Phone bill (only single tickets)
- Vipps

Additionally, it is possible to associate multiple users to one mobile account, so that travels are charged to only this account. Refilling the account easiest to do directly in the application with VISA/MasterCard, but it is also possible to use a regular money transfer with a KID-number. NB: The mobile account is not the same account as the account associated with the Skyss-card.

After downloading the app you only have to add your credit cards the first time you use them. Future purchases can be made with the same cards. No card information is stored in the application or on our servers. Our chosen payment provider, Nets, stores your credit card information securely and in compliance to the payment providers’ guidelines.

Skyss Billett allows you to easily and quickly purchase tickets, but we still urge you to buy your tickets before you embark the vehicles. You are responsible for having a valid ticket and enough battery power left on your device to show the ticket to any inspector as long as you are onboard one of our vehicles.

The newest version of the application contains the following new features:
- Brand new design, with a cleaner and more modern look.
- Single tickets for dogs and bikes; 24h tickets for adults, children and seniors.
- 30 days youth ticket is now not personal, like all other season tickets.
- To avoid people purchasing their ticket just before an inspection we have added a 2 minute countdown, before the ticket is activated. You can still enter the vehicle while the ticket is in countdown-mode.

- Shortcut to purchase expired tickets again have been added.

Ratings and reviews

I haven't had any glitches or else the review would be lower. This app allows you to purchase tickets but doesn't tell which zone you need for the different bus lines. You have to go to a separate (unnecessary) app to get route info, WHICH DOESN'T TELL YOU WHAT ZONE YOU TO PURCHASE!!!

Dont like the app. You can only buy tickets, but you're not able to check timetables. To buy a ticket you have to search your route in Google maps. Then check on the website which zones it needs, what can quite take some time. Then go back to the app and buy the ticket. This is compared to a lot of other cities in Norway one of the worst concepts. At least buying the ticket works.

I selected a standard 1,5 hr ticket for a 7 min bus ride, pressed "purchase" and it started loading as usual and all was good. Got the countdown and all. When I unlock my phone 5 minutes later on the bus, I suddenly have no ticket. I try multiple times, close and reopen the app, and nothing works. I then purchase a new single ticket, and suddenly I have TWO VALID TICKETS. Previous one suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Countdown on the new one. They expired 5 min apart. Such a rip-off!
