How do I open the platform barriers at stations in the Netherlands?

If you want to enter or leave a station platform but the gates are closed, use the large square barcode at the top right of your online ticket to open them. Simply hold the barcode up to the scanner (illuminated section). The gate will open immediately. If you show your online ticket on a mobile device and have saved your credit card on this device, we recommend deactivating NFC to avoid an unintentional debit.
