Rav Kav Travel Card

Be ready to use public transport the moment you arrive in Israel!

The Rav Kav is Israel’s rechargeable smart travel card for buses, trains, and light rail. This card comes preloaded with ₪50 credit so you can hop on public transportation right away—no need to figure out apps or find a service center when you land.

Why this card is perfect for your arrival:

• Ready to use immediately – skip the lines and travel with ease from day one.

• Works on all major public transport – buses, trains, and light rail across Israel.

• Great backup option – perfect if your phone battery dies or you can’t access your payment app.

About this card:

• This is an anonymous Rav Kav card, meaning you don’t need to register to use it.

• Once you’re settled, visit any Rav Kav service center with your student ID to upgrade to a discounted student card. Your remaining balance from this card can be easily transferred.

• Credit can be topped up at kiosks, via apps, or at many convenience stores.

Tip: Even if you plan to use your phone for payment later, it’s worth keeping this card in your wallet as a reliable backup for your time in Israel.
