About Railboard
Written by the company
With the Railboard iPhone or iPad app, you can save lots of money by finding super-cheap split train tickets. Plus, you have easy access to live train times powered by National Rail Enquiries.
With Split Tickets, our clever algorithms find combinations of tickets that together offer the same journey but at a lower price than a regular ticket.
This is done by splitting regular train tickets at calling points along the journey. So instead of one ticket from A to C, you have two tickets from A to B and B to C. However, you stay on the same train as normal. There is no requirement to alight and re-board. And we do all the hard work to find them for you!
But that’s not all; Railboard has tons of other features:- No booking fees.
- Instant etickets, which you can add to Apple Wallet.
- Buy with Apple Pay.
- Supports Dark Mode.
- Set your railcard to get railcard discounts.
- Easily request refunds using an online form inside the app.
- Receipts available inside the app.
- An easy button to add journeys to your calendar.
- You can optionally toggle off seeing ticket prices.
- You can choose to see only direct trains.
- National Rail departure and arrival boards.
- Official National Rail platform numbers.
- Clear disruption, delay, and cancellation notices.
- Pin trains and journeys for easy access later on.
- You can save route searches for quick access.
- Optional settings, so you can customise Railboard to how you like it.

An Essential APP
Railboard is an essential app for anyone travelling by train in the UK. It's particularly useful when you have connections to make, as it provides up-to-date arrival and departure information in real time. Being able to see delays, platform changes and live train movements makes it much easier to plan your journey and decide whether to wait, change plans or make a connection. I wouldn't want to travel by rail without it.

Excellent site for getting the cheapest tickets
Very straightforward process with no hassle using the tickets. Saved a few £ so what’s not to like - I’ll definitely use Railboard again 👍

Cancelled train.
Booking was straightforward however train was cancelled, offered alternative but wasn’t able to make it work but offered full refund. Very straightforward.
