Shohoz-Synesis-Vincen JV, the ticketing partner of Bangladesh Railway, on Wednesday launched a mobile app named “Rail Sheba” for online ticketing services.
From now passengers will be able to purchase train tickets by using the app alongside the e-ticket website of Bangladesh Railway, said a press release.
Railways Minister Md Nurul Islam Sujan launched the app. The launch event was held in the Jamuna Conference Room of Bangladesh Railway Bhaban.
Passengers can download the app from Google Play. Upon installation, passengers need to register first providing necessary information, including name, mobile number, email address, preferred identification number, etc.
Passengers already registered on the e-ticket website need not register again. They can login with their existing account information.
After train and seat selection on the app, passengers can pay for their ticket(s) by using their debit/credit cards or mobile financial services. Afterwards, their e-tickets will be sent to their registered email.
Passengers will also be able to view their purchase history for up to seven days (both upcoming and past trips).
