معنی
Purchasing travel fare.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'OV-chipkaart' has largely replaced paper tickets, but people still say 'een kaartje kopen' when they top up their credit or buy a single-use chip-ticket. Flemish speakers might use 'ticketje' or 'biljet' more often than 'kaartje', though 'kaartje' is still understood. Buying a ticket on the train from a conductor is almost impossible and results in a high fine. You MUST buy it before boarding. The Dutch are very tech-savvy. Most 'kaartjes' are now bought via the NS app or 'Glimble', using QR codes.
Use the App
Buying a ticket via the NS app is often 1 euro cheaper than at the machine because you don't pay for the physical paper.
No Cash
Most Dutch buses and many ticket machines no longer accept cash. Always have a debit card (pinpas) or credit card ready.

E-tickets
If you buy an e-ticket, make sure your phone is charged. A dead battery is not a valid excuse for not having a ticket!
