Deutschland-Semesterticket in the myVRN app

1. Registration in myVRN

- Open the myVRN app
- In the menu click on VRN Account and register using a personal email address that can be accessed independently of the college/university. Please Don't use your RPTU-email address.
- Wait for the confirmation email and click on the link contained therein
- Confirm registration via the link
- Complete registration by entering the method of payment
- Wait for another email to complete the registration process

Important: The specification of the payment method is mandatory for technical and contractual reasons, although the Deutschland-Semesterticket is already paid for with university enrollment and can be ordered for 0,00 €. A verification process is carried out by the payment service provider Logpay.

2. Selection

- click on VRN ticketshop in the menu
- select Deutschland-Semesterticket with correct start-month under the menu item Deutschland-Ticket
- click on "Authorization check“ to verify eligibility

3. Check authorization

- Use your university login data
- After successful approval, your authorization credentials are stored

Important: For the university login, you will be redirected to the authentication page of the selected college/university. Register here with your university login details. The VRN has no access to this data.

4. Order a ticket

- Switch to the VRN ticketshop by clicking on VRN Ticketshop in the menu
- Under the Ticket purchase tab, select the Deutschland-Semesterticket with the correct start month, add it to the basket and complete the order by clicking Buy Now

Note: Once the order has been placed, the Deutschland-Semesterticket will appear under the "Purchase Summary" tab on the VRN ticketshop page, showing its validity for the selected month. The Deutschland-Semesterticket is a subscription that is valid for the entire semester, but is provided as a monthly ticket in the myVRN app.

5. Extension

For the following semester, the authorization check must be initiated again in order to continue using the Deutschland-Semesterticket - even if you already have a valid Deutschland-Semesterticket.
This is possible after enrolling for the following semester, at the earliest 20 days before the start of the respective semester. To do this, please go to the authentication page of the college/university using the link for authorization check in the app. If the authorization is approved, the entitlement period is extended until the end of the following semester. The validity of the Deutschland-Semesterticket is also extended. In this case, it is not necessary to reorder the Deutschland-Semesterticket.

If the authorization is refused or not renewed for the following semester by the end of the current semester, the Deutschland-Semesterticket automatically expires at the end of the current semester. If the Deutschland-Semesterticket is desired again in the new semester after the validity has expired, the authorization (step 3 "Check authorization") must be obtained again and the ticket reordered.

6. Cancellation

The Deutschland-Semesterticket is paid for when you enroll, and cancellation is not normally possible.
If you are exmatriculated or granted leave of absence during the current semester and the college/university refunds the amount, you are no longer entitled to use the Deutschland-Semesterticket. In this case, you must cancel it yourself.
The Deutschland-Semesterticket must be cancelled immediately when you apply for exmatriculation or leave of absence at the end of the current month (technical deadline is the 10th of each month). If the cancellation date is after the 10th of the month, the cancellation must take place at the next possible date. In addition, the exmatriculated student must immediately contact VRN by email at ticketshop@vrn.de to have the cancellation date corrected.

If you cancel your contract as part of an exmatriculation, it is not possible or permitted to reorder a Deutschland-Semesterticket. However, it is possible to buy/use other products such as the Deutschland-Ticket or the Luftlinientarif.
