CP Card
The CP Card is a personal, non-transferable card, valid for:
- Portuguese citizens;
- Foreign nationals resident in Portugal.
It allows you to load various CP passes and season tickets onto a single card, combining different routes and services to suit your needs.
The CP Card is for CP tickets; to use the train, metro, or bus in the Lisbon or Porto metropolitan areas, you can use the Navegante or Andante Card, respectively.
The CP Card can hold the Green Rail Pass, which is valid on both the Lisbon and Porto urban train services simultaneously, although it is not designed to hold other specific tickets for these services at the same time.
When you apply for a CP Card, you create a CP account that enables you to receive information from CP, in accordance with the consents you have accepted.
We want to provide you with a personalised service by sharing communications tailored to your profile, which may involve processing your personal data. Your consent is essential for this. These choices will determine how we can process your data and what type of communications we can share with you.
