U-OV subscriptions and travel products
Looking for a U-OV subscription that fits how often you travel? We offer different subscriptions and travel products for buses and trams in the province of Utrecht.
Whether you travel sometimes, every day or mainly outside rush hour, there is an option for you. See which product fits how often and when you travel.
Do you travel sometimes?
If you only travel with U-OV now and then, you may not need a subscription.
You can check in and out with OVpay using your bank card, credit card or phone. You can also travel with an OV-chipkaart. You only pay for the journeys you make.
You can also buy an e-ticket in the U-OV app.
Do you travel a lot in one day?
With U-OV Max Day, you never pay more than €10 per day on U-OV buses and trams.
Are you aged 12 to 18? After you register, you pay no more than €6.50 per day. Travel less? Then you also pay less. Adults do not need to activate U-OV Max Day when travelling with OVpay.
Do you travel often with U-OV?
With U-OV Max Month, you never pay more than €100 per month.
Are you aged 12 to 18? You pay no more than €65 per month. U-OV Max Month works differently from a normal subscription. You activate it for free. If you travel less, you only pay for the journeys you make.
You can also choose a Star subscription on your OV-chipkaart. This lets you travel without extra costs within the zones included in your subscription.
Do you mainly travel outside rush hour?
Then U-OV Off Peak may be a good choice.
For €30 per month, you can travel as much as you like on U-OV buses and trams during off-peak hours, at weekends and on public holidays.
Off-peak hours are:
- Monday to Friday: 09:00–16:00 and 18:30–06:30
- Weekend: Friday 18:30 until Monday 04:00
Are you travelling with a group?
You can buy e-tickets for several people in the U-OV app.
Travelling with a group of children? You can also use the children's group ticket.
Do you often drive to Utrecht?
Then Park and Ride Utrecht may be useful.
Park outside the city centre and continue your journey by bus or tram. You can also get a discount on your parking costs.
Are you going to the theatre?
For some performances at Stadsschouwburg Utrecht or Flint theatre, you can travel with U-OV for free with a valid theatre ticket. Check the conditions before you travel.
