  1. 3/5Credit card/Americans & Canadians,

    Hi, Any chance you could make it easier to use PayPal? Now I have to go through all menus (stations/date/time), by the time I get to “pay”, it tells Americans etc., has to use PayPal for some security stuff. Any chance I can get to the PayPal link through a settings link, on top? Thank you. PS Not sure about why Americans etc., have to use PayPal. I use my credit card all over Europe, and Norway in particular, without any issues, for years.

  2. 5/5Very nice

    Really nice application. The GUI is slightly overloaded, but quite convenient and informative. It is also very handy that one can purchase the entire trip including the VY train, Ruter’s T-bane and a local bus. It even has a taxi, although that one goes separately, but it is still nice to have it right here in the same application. I see several negative reviews here saying about problems with payment, and I reckon, this is about non-norwegian cards, and those indeed should be supported, I think. Meanwhile, for those living in Norway paying with Vipps works totally fine.

  3. 2/5Could be better

    I found the Vy app frustrating to use when trying to purchase tickets. Adding a payment method was unnecessarily difficult, and the process was not clearly explained. Only after I went to their website did I find out that for American customers, the app only accepts PayPal and American Express. This limitation was not made obvious upfront, which caused confusion and wasted time. This information should also be clearly displayed in the app for easier interaction. The app could be much more user friendly by clearly communicating accepted payment methods before customers reach the checkout stage.

  4. 1/5You can’t ignore an entire continent

    Folks, you can’t sell an app that tourists are expected to use traveling in Norway that refuses to serve hundreds of thousands of visitors from North America by not accepting credit cards from the U.S. I first encountered this problem on my last visit to Norway in 2017 so you’ve had 6 years to fix it. I’ve heard you accept PayPal, but generally only folks under 40 use it and even they have moved to other apps. I now follow several sites for travel tips to Norway and am seeing a lot of miscommunication that Norwegians don’t accept Visa cards at all. If you don’t fix this soon, it will cost the Norwegian Tourist Board millions to address.

  5. 3/5RE11 always in «wrong» order

    After they opened the double-track from Drammen to Tønsberg, the train order seems to have changed more or less permanently without the on-station monitors indicating where the train cars are supposed to stop, have been updated to match the new reality. (And the app could also include the train/station placement information for the departure station of the passenger).
