On August 19, Vietnam Railways Corporation (VNR) announced that from August 20, VNR will connect and sell train tickets via Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and Apple Pay e-wallets so that customers, especially international customers, can easily buy tickets online and pay by bank card.
Previously, international visitors often bought train tickets through travel agencies, travel websites, etc. They could not buy tickets directly on Vietnam Railways' ticket sales websites because they could not pay directly with cards issued by foreign banks.
From August 1, 2024, VNR has officially opened a payment gateway for international cards issued by foreign banks through the VNPAY payment gateway. International customers can easily book tickets directly and pay abroad, without going through an agent.
Along with opening a direct payment gateway, the railway industry has recently installed automatic train ticket vending machines at domestic tourist destinations, such as: Nha Trang City Post Office, Ho Chi Minh City Post Office, Da Lat Station, Quang Nam Province Tourist Support Center Office, Hoi An City...

The automatic train ticket vending machine has a large screen, a friendly interface, and languages used are Vietnamese and English. People and tourists can easily perform operations such as: Selecting ticket information, payment method, and making payment transactions according to instructions.
This device helps save waiting time when queuing to look up information, buying train tickets during peak times, reducing risks when using cash. In addition, it also helps passengers proactively choose seat types, locations on the train, buy multiple trips, different routes, and use additional incentives to save costs.
