The SBB and ZVV are greedy cheats

The SBB ticketing app is offering me to the “City Wetzikon ZH” option, even though it knows that I already have those zones in a monthly ticket.

The SBB wants to sell me a ticket I already have

They will never, ever, ever add a feature that would save money for the user. They will always err on the side of selling you the same zones multiple times.

Moar money is what it’s all about.

Or you can use the step on/step off feature, right? But then you have to let the app track your location while you’re commuting, and you have to remember to turn it off. I wonder if it understands the monthly ticket? I bet it doesn’t.

Even if it does, they get your location data instead.
