Do I need a DB customer account to book a ticket?

No, you can book tickets on bahn.de, int.bahn.de or in the DB Navigator app without registering or logging in. However, having a DB customer account offers you advantages when you book tickets:

• Receive useful information about your journey by e-mail or via notifications in the app
• Manage your bookings and BahnCard subscriptions
• Collect bonus and status points with every journey with our BahnBonus loyalty programme
• Sign up to our newsletter and services to receive regular personalised information by e-mail
• BahnCard: enjoy receiving travel vouchers, upgrades and partner deals
• Once you have logged in, you can access all the digital tickets you have purchased via your DB customer account, in the "Journeys" section of the DB Navigator app and under "My Trips" on bahn.de.
