Reka Card

The Reka Card is a widely accepted prepaid payment solution in Switzerland, designed for travel, leisure, and mobility-related expenses. Issued by Reka (Swiss Travel Fund), the Reka Card offers a tax-advantaged way for individuals and employees to access discounted spending on holidays, public transport, fuel, and leisure activities. For hospitality, travel, and retail businesses, accepting the Reka Card is a strategic way to attract Swiss consumers using one of the country's most popular employee benefit systems.

 

Reka Card is the digital successor to the traditional Reka-Checks and is increasingly preferred for its convenience, flexibility, and broad acceptance network.
