Benefits of the The International Youth Travel Card (IYTC)

What is the International Youth Travel Card (IYTC)?

The International Youth Travel Card (IYTC) is a discount card specifically designed for young travellers, aged 12 to 35. It unlocks discounts on travel, accommodation, shopping, dining, and entertainment in over 90 countries. Making it the perfect companion for anyone looking to explore the world on a budget!

Who can apply for the IYTC?

Unlike many travel cards that require proof of your educational institution, the IYTC is available to non-students. If you’re aged 12 – 35 years old, don’t hold a full-time International Student Identity Card (ISIC), and you can provide proof of age you’re eligible! Part-time students are able to claim an IYTC card, as long as you don’t hold an ISIC.

Travel Discounts

One of the top perks is substantial savings on your travel expenses. From flights, train tickets, bus rides, and even car rentals. That dream destination you’ve been planning could become a reality with the IYTC.

Accommodation Discounts

With IYTC you can also access offers on budget hotels, luxury resorts, lodging options, and more. So you can travel further, stay longer, and experience even more.

Shopping and Entertainment Discounts

Whether you’re after new travel gear or simply want to enjoy a night out, the IYTC helps you do it all on a budget. Enjoy discounts at big brands and local boutiques around the world.

How long is the IYTC valid?

The International Youth Travel Card is valid for one year from the date of issue. If you’re planning an extended or future trip, you can easily renew your card as long as you still meet the eligibility crtieria.

How much does the IYTC cost?

The cost is usually around £12, but this can vary. If you’re in the UK, you can get it included for free with a TOTUM+ membership!
