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
