An e-ticket, also known as a QR code, is a ticket type which is valid for travel – in addition to paper tickets, contactless pay as you go (where available) and Smartcards – on c2c and other train companies in Britain.
If selecting the e-ticket option at the checkout, you can choose to download your ticket to the c2c app, Google/Apple Wallet or receive as a PDF by email. Simply present your e-ticket (the QR code) at the readers fitted to the barriers at both ends of your journey, or to a revenue inspector if requested.
