The Deutschlandticket has cost €63 per month since February 2025, but you can get it for just €35. How? Through Entgeltumwandlung (salary conversion) and employer subsidies, your ticket becomes cheaper -- and you save additionally through tax benefits. Providers like TicketPlus+ also offer flexible pause functions and mobility extras like e-bike credits or carsharing benefits.
Here's How:
- Apply for a job ticket: Your employer must participate in the program. Ask your HR department.
- Use salary conversion: The ticket price is deducted directly from your gross salary, reducing your taxable income.
- Secure additional benefits: With TicketPlus+, you can pause your ticket and use mobility bonuses.
