The 0-Euro-Fund:
A Ticket For All!

German transport policy is in a mess. Local public transport is becoming more expensive again, with the Deutschlandticket introduced in 2023 rising by as  much as 9 euros a month. With  the 9-Euro-Fund, we offer a  solidarity-based alternative to  public transport ticket prices – with the support of Die PARTEI for a while now.

Now we are taking the next logical step with Die PARTEI and reducing the contribution by an impressive 9 euros per month – the 9-Euro-Fund will  become the 0-Euro-Fund. You read that correctly: From January 2025, we will cover the increased transport fee for you, even if you are a non-paying member of the fund.

This is how it works: You fill out our membership form, receive a confirmation email and don’t pay 9 euros to our donation account. If you are checked without a ticket, the fund will pay the increased fare for you.

This campaign is limited to 1,000 (one thousand) increased transport charges paid by us for members – we will inform all members by email about the current status.

The right ticket for everyone

We expect to be able to pay all increased transportation charges – however, there is no legal right to payment.

The idea of the 9-euro ticket lives on

The majority of the population and transport associations are clearly in favor of the 9-Euro-Ticket. More and more people want socially responsible and sustainable mobility. Instead of listening to the people, the coalition and especially the FDP have decided to govern only for the rich and for the car lobby. We demand: Public transport must be affordable for everyone, and the 9-Euro-Ticket must be brought back immediately.

Scenario 1: Member submits an increased transportation charge

You travel by train and your tickets are checked. If you don’t have a ticket and are a member of the 9-Euro-Fund, you can still remain completely relaxed. Simply accept the payment request for the increased fare and
send an email with the payment request to “entgelt@9eurofonds.de

The email must contain the following  information: Photo of the payment request, your current order number, IBAN and name of the transport transport company, EBE/FN number (see payment request). The 9-Euro-Fonds will then pay the increased fare for you.

Scenario 2: Another person submits an increased transportation charge

As a member of the 9-Euro-Fund, you can offer another person (hereinafter referred to as +1) per month that the fund will also pay their ticket. If you notice on the train that a person is being checked without a ticket, share your current order number with them and explain what to do: The +1 must send an email to ‘entgelt@9eurofonds.de’ with the following information: your current order number, photo of the payment request, IBAN and name of the transport company and EBE/FN number (to be taken from the payment request). The 9-Euro-Fonds will then pay the increased fare for the +1 and send them a confirmation.

What should you bear in mind?

If you would like to use the 0-euro fund, please make sure that you have taken out a membership within the last 30 days before travelling without a ticket. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept requests from members who joined later. Please note: Riding without a valid ticket is currently still considered a criminal offence in Germany – even if the increased fare is subsequently paid. Transport companies can report you for this offence. In particular, if you are repeatedly checked by the same company without a valid ticket, you can expect to be reported to the police. We therefore recommend that you no longer use the fund after being checked without a ticket. The fund does not cover the costs of legal proceedings or fines. The 0-euro fund is a political campaign. Our aim is to introduce a 0-euro ticket. Based on many donations, we assume that we will be able to pay all transport charges. However, we cannot guarantee this. There is NO legal entitlement to payment of the increased fare. Should the fund be empty, we will inform all members in good time by e-mail.

The free ‘0-euro fund’ is limited to 1000 (one thousand) increased transport charges for members – we will inform all members by email about the current status.

Important: We do not all move through public space in the same way. Black people and people of colour are also affected by racial profiling during ticket checks, even though this is illegal. In addition, for all people without secure residence status, a report can have serious consequences. Anyone without secure residence status should only use public transport with a valid ticket! If you observe discriminatory behavior on buses and trains, we ask you to stand by those affected.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.
The 9-Euro Fund is launching a new campaign in January 2025: Membership of the fund is free of charge. This means that we will cover your increased fare even if you have not donated to us. This campaign is limited to 1000 (one thousand) increased transport charges for members that we cover. However, if you want to be absolutely sure that everything has worked out with your membership, please send us your enquiry to ‘admin@9eurofonds.de’.

If you are a member of the fund and are checked without a ticket, the fund will pay the increased fare. Send an email to ‘entgelt@9eurofonds.de’ with the following content: Send us a photo of the payment request, your current order number, the typed IBAN and the name of the relevant transport company. We also need the EBE number or FN number for the intended purpose. We will then transfer the fare for you and send you a confirmation. If you want to take someone with you, explain how to do it and pass on your current order number. This will enable us to recognise and pay for the ticket as a Soli 9 Euro ticket.

Driving without a ticket is still considered a criminal offence in Germany and every time you are checked without a ticket, the risk of being charged increases. We therefore recommend that you stop using the fund once you have been checked without a ticket. We do not cover the costs of penalties and legal proceedings. Please be aware that you ultimately bear the risk yourself. To protect you, we will cancel your active membership of the fund after the second speeding ticket that we have taken over for you. To avoid putting yourself at risk, it is very important that you make sure that you are not checked again without a ticket! Any additional people you have taken with you will not be counted.

Driving without a ticket is considered a criminal offence in Germany.
You will be charged with the so-called ‘fraudulent acquisition of benefits’. If you are caught, there is nothing we can do about the legal consequences consequences that may occur. If for example, if you are on probation, your visa depends on law-abiding behaviour behaviour or similar, there is a much higher risk of being risk of being prosecuted than for others and/or the impending consequences are much more drastic. It is also possible that transport companies may also record people who are caught without a ticket in a database – and people who have often travelled without a ticket travelling without a ticket at some point. So always be aware of the risk and weigh up carefully whether you want to take it or not.

We are a small structure with few people and little resources and therefore we unfortunately cannot offer any further support with legal consequences – neither with finding lawyers, nor with emotional support or paying the actual fine after receiving a penalty order, should one actually come. You are of course free to write to us if you are threatened with further consequences – but we can’t guarantee that we can help.

If you were already a member before the check, the fund will pay the increased transport fee for you and/or one other person per month! If you are checked without a ticket, please send us an email to entgelt@9eurofonds.de. In addition to a photo of the payment request addressed to you, please also send us the name of the transport company with its IBAN and the EBE number for the intended purpose (sometimes also called FN no.), typed out. This information and your current order number must also be sent to us by the +1 person travelling on your order number. We will then settle the invoice for you or the +1 person and send a confirmation. As the penalty fees are time-limited payments, we ask you or your +1 person to inform us immediately after the inspection. This way we can transfer the money directly and there are no further reminder costs. If reminder costs are incurred because the e-mail reaches us too late, we ask you or the +1 person to bear these yourself. In this case, the fund will only pay the 60 euros.

In this case, you must pay the fine yourself. It is not possible to join the fund at a later date.

We finance the fund from donations, so it is important that you think carefully about whether you want to donate a little and that you tell all your friends and acquaintances about it, because with more people, the donations increase and the likelihood that the fund will not run out. Should this happen anyway, we will notify all members in good time.

We pay the fare for journeys within Germany on buses, underground trains, trams and S-Bahn trains where the €9 ticket could previously be used. Regional transport operated by DB is not covered.

Basically: Yes. The 9-Euro-Fund is a solidarity pot. Due to the broad circle of supporters and many donations, we are confident that we will be able to pay all increased transport fees for our members – however, we cannot guarantee this and there is no legal claim to this. Should the fund become empty, we will inform all members by email that we are currently no longer able to pay.

The 9-Euro-Fund started as an independent initiative and has been continued by the party ‘Die PARTEI’ since October 2022.
