Yes, you can buy a ticket for several travellers on one smartphone or mobile. This can be done via the website, via the De Lijn app or by text. However, you must always travel together. Why? Because these tickets are stored on one device.

• You can activate an unlimited number of m-tickets at the same time. However, the actual purchase is subject to a limit.

M-tickets are activated via your personal De Lijn account. The account holder must always be present with the group. Why? In the event of a ticket inspection, the account holder must be able to show his or her identity card to the Lijn inspector. If not, De Lijn may draw up a violation report.

• In the case of sms-tickets, you must buy an sms-ticket for each of your fellow-travellers before you get on the bus. You can buy up to 5 sms-tickets at a time with one text message, so you don’t have to pay the operator charge (0.15 euros) for each sms-ticket. Do this by typing a number between 2 and 5 after your SMS code, for example ‘DL5’.
