- Purchasing ZoneCard
ZoneCard can be purchased for the first time at most staffed ScotRail stations and SPT Travel Centres. All you need is one passport-sized photo (proof of date of birth is needed for children under 16 years of age). Remember, your ZoneCard is not transferable.
If you have already registered for ZoneCard, you can order a new card via our online ticket sales site, which is managed by IRIS Ticketing Solutions on behalf of SPT.
ZoneCard is valid from Sunday to Saturday and can be renewed from the Thursday preceding the expiry date on your ticket. If you do not have a current ZoneCard, you can buy one on the Saturday prior to its validity. Please note the ticket will not be valid for use until the following day.
- Where to buy your ZoneCard
ZoneCard can be obtained from most staffed ScotRail stations, SPT Travel Centres and Ayr and Kilmarnock bus stations.
In addition, ZoneCard can be renewed for a one or four week period at selected local retail outlets.

The ZoneCard map shows the area covered. For example, Kilmarnock is in Zone K1 and Ayr is in Zone A1. Simply select the zones you need to travel through - the minimum number of zones you can buy is two - and you can enjoy unlimited travel with participating operators.
View or download the ZoneCard map and leaflet (pdf format, 450kb, opens a new window).
If you hold a valid ticket for either G1 or G2, you are also able to travel within the shaded city centre area - see cream shaded area of enlarged map of areas G1 and G2 - and on the Subway system. If you hold a valid ticket for either G1 or G2 and wish to travel in an outer Glasgow zone (G3 to G8) a minimum of three zones is required. If you possess three Glasgow zones, you will have the freedom to travel in all Glasgow zones (G1 to G8).
