We strived to make the independent purchases of tickets and services through the Portal, Application and Machines as easy as possible. To facilitate the operation, the course of purchase process in all of these sales channels is very similar, so you will be able to easily use the one which is the most convenient for you at a given time.

Within MKA you can currently buy several types of tickets and services, and the purchase process will be similar in all cases. You will be always asked to provide the required ticket parameters in a few steps to allow the system to calculate the appropriate price:

Step 1. Select ticket type – here you can specify the organizer offering the transport means that you are planning to use, and the ticket type. You can also choose ticket specifications such as: validity date, activation date, zone and ticket type (network ticket, single line ticket, two line ticket, or distance ticket in case of SKA).

Remember that other users’ accounts are linked to your account, in this step you also select an account for which the ticket will be purchased.

Step 2. Select line/route – here you can choose, depending on the ticket type – a line, several lines, or a route – the starting stop and the final stop, and possible intermediary stops – on which such season ticket will be valid.

Step 3. Price – in this step all possible discounts for the created ticket will be displayed together with prices.

If you purchase an SKA ticket, and the selected route includes a parking lot, you can also book a parking space. If there is more than one parking lot on the route, you can select only one of them.

Basing on the selected ticket/service parameters, the system will display the total payable amount.
