How to buy tickets: User Guide
The traditional paper ticket is being phased out in favor of a fully digital ecosystem.
- Since November 1, 2025, the sale of magnetic paper tickets has officially ceased across almost the entire network (ticket machines and ticket offices).
- Still have paper tickets? You can continue to use any remaining paper tickets until June 2026 on the rail network (Metro/RER).
- Between November 2025 and September 2026, you can exchange your old paper tickets for their digital equivalent on a Navigo Easy pass at any ticket counter.
► Buy and top up your tickets using the Île-de-France Mobilités app
Forget paper tickets, whether you use an iPhone or Android, your phone is now your only ticket. Tickets can be purchased directly through the Île-de-France Mobilités, Bonjour RATP, or SNCF Connect apps. No need to wait in line at the station!
How To Do
► Buy and top up your tickets using the Navigo Easy pass
For those who do not wish to use their smartphone, the rechargeable Navigo Easy physical card (€2 to purchase) is the ideal support for your digital tickets. It is available at stations, either at the ticket counters or from the vending machines.
