Can I also buy my ticket on public transport (train, bus, etc.)?

You can buy your ticket directly from the staff on all OÖVV regional buses. This applies in particular to single tickets, day tickets, OÖ leisure tickets, weekly tickets and monthly tickets. Please note that not every bus is equipped with a cash machine.
Train

Long-distance transport e.g.e.g. Railjet, Intercity, EuroCity
If you did not have the opportunity to purchase a ticket before travelling, you can buy it directly from the train attendant. It is important that you visit the staff immediately after boarding and report the ticket purchase. Please note that tickets purchased on the train are subject to an on-board fare that may be higher than the regular fare.
Local transport e.g.e.g. REX, S-Bahn
On these trains, boarding is generally only permitted with a valid ticket. Exceptions apply if the ticket machine at the station is defective or there is no machine available. In such cases, you can purchase the ticket on the train, but you must either contact the train attendant immediately after boarding or use the ticket machine on the train.
