Costing £25, not only can it be used with other Railcards (such as 16-25 or Senior) but anyone can apply for it, no matter their age.
The Trip.com railcard is linked to Trip.com accounts, and can be used on 30 bookings in a 90 day period.
Up to £25 can be saved per ticket – so that means as much as £750 discounted.
Of course, this would only apply if you were buying tickets over £250.
