Very easy to set up a weekend travel for a group of people, that is just a little bit more expensive than setting up individual tickets,
★★★★☆Amey Guthe· May 20, 2025
Despite reports of In-App Payment issues, the app’s UI and functionality deserve recognition. It provides comprehensive public transportation details, offering options like "Less Walking" and "Stopover" for user convenience. Handy widgets enhance the experience, while the integrated map simplifies navigation. Additionally, the dedicated map sections offer clear route insights, making travel planning effortless.

Useful apps for buy public transportation tickets in Amsterdam.
★☆☆☆☆Dmitrii· Aug 4, 2025
It’s common to have trouble buying tickets from machines in Amsterdam. That’s why the app should work without any issues — but unfortunately, it doesn’t. We tried to buy two tickets using the app. The first one worked fine, but the second ticket showed a payment error before we even got to choose a payment method. Because of this, we had to walk to the next metro station, where the ticket machine was working — but only accepted cash (and this is 2025!).
★★☆☆☆Pedro Mateus· Apr 27, 2025
The payment stopped working for hours which made it Impossible to buy tickets. If downtime is a possibility then there shouldn't be app exclusive products like the group ticket.
★★☆☆☆Dhanuka Dwas· Feb 27, 2026
The travel plan does not say which transport options are valid with your 24hrs or group ticket. - when a plan is selected and if you want to board a tram, the right stop is very difficult to find (specially if the stop has trams running on both directions). - app does not show vehicle's live location (most apps in Finland like VR Makayla, HSL and OSL do). If all the options shown in the app are operated by GVB, I don't see a reason why they can't roll out this feature + finniky QR reader
