RailOne App Offers 3% Discount on General Tickets, Digital Payments Encouraged

• Railways introduces a 3% discount on unreserved (general) tickets booked via the 'RailOne' app using digital payments.
• The discount is applicable to all digital payment gateways except R-Wallet, which continues to offer a 3% bonus cashback.
• The scheme is valid for six months, from January 14 to July 14, 2026, with a review by CRIS for potential extension.
• The RailOne app, launched by Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, offers ticket booking, live train status, PNR status, and multi-language support.
• This initiative aims to reduce ticket counter crowds, save passenger time, and promote cashless transactions for a modern travel experience.

Why It Matters: Passengers can now get a 3% discount on general tickets via the RailOne app, promoting digital payments and convenience.
