Scan colours: What do the colours mean when scanning tickets?

The colour after scanning symbolises the validity and status or special feature of a ticket. The colours are selected according to the traffic light system. Green signals when everything is OK, orange when you need to pay attention to something special and red when a ticket is invalid. Always pay attention to the text that is displayed to get more detailed information.

In summary, the following colours are displayed in the corresponding cases:

Green:

  • In check-in mode: The scanned ticket is valid
  • In check-out mode: The ticket has been checked out

Orange:

  • The ticket still has to be paid for (payment on site)
  • The ticket was purchased with a subcategory for which it may still be necessary to check on site whether the ticket purchaser is authorised to purchase this subcategory (e.g. student ID, children under 16, etc.)

Red:

  • The ticket is invalid (e.g. wrong event)
  • Incorrect checkpoint
  • The ticket has already been read in (duplicate)
  • The ticket has not yet been checked in or has already been checked out (in check-out mode)
