They already use it
“And how do I get there from my place?”
Museum, concert hall, festival or trade fair: every visitor asks this question before coming. An address and a map do not answer it.
-
An address does not say which train to take “Ten minutes from the station” gives neither the line nor the departure time from Fribourg or Basel. And if your page lists lines and times, the December timetable change can make them wrong.
-
They leave your website to search elsewhere They open a map app, type your address again and are often shown the car first. The easiest option ends up in your car park.
-
Your efforts have no figures behind them You encourage public transport. But when the sustainability report is due, nothing shows where your audience comes from or whether they look for a way to come without a car.
Your website finally gives the answer
Visitors enter their station, stop or address. They get three complete journeys, with the lines, the changes and the walk to your entrance, without leaving your website.
- Your address is already set: they only enter where they start
- All of Switzerland, from the main station to the village stop
- In English, French, German and Italian
Try it the way your visitors will
This button really works, with a demo venue in Vevey as the destination. Enter your departure station: this is what your visitors will see, in your colours.
On the day, everyone knows which train to take
On a concert, trade fair or conference page, the button opens on the right date. Visitors choose “Arrive by” and the start time: they see the journeys that get them there in time.
- The event date is already set
- Journeys that arrive before the start
- The same button for your whole programme
Fewer cars, more landscapes
Every visitor who comes by train or bus is a parking space you do not have to find, and less CO₂ in your footprint.
You finally know where your audience comes from
How many visitors searched for a journey, from which pages of your website and from which towns they set off. Material for a sustainability report, a file for your partners or your next campaign.
- The towns your audience sets off from
- An export for your spreadsheet, ready for your reports
- No cookies, and never the address typed
Live without rebuilding your website
Paste one line of code where you want the button, or have it open from your existing “Getting here” link. No developer to bring in and no timetable to keep up to date: they come from the official Swiss timetable.
- WordPress, Wix, Webflow or a custom site
- A link to share in newsletters and tickets, no code at all
- In your colours and your typeface
Made for those who welcome the public
A permanent venue or a one-night event: wherever people ask you “how do I get there?”, the button answers for you.
-
Museums and exhibitions The answer to “how do I get there?”, right next to opening hours and prices.
-
Concert halls and theatres The show date already set, to arrive before curtain up.
-
Festivals Every festival-goer finds their train: that many fewer cars to park.
-
Trade fairs and conferences Exhibitors and visitors find their journey from all over Switzerland.
-
Hotels and tourism The way from the station, ready before booking.
-
Companies and offices Clients, candidates and staff arrive without asking you the way.
All of Swiss public transport, right to your door
In a city centre or at the far end of a valley: if public transport goes to your venue, the button suggests it. Journeys come from the official Swiss timetable, so you have nothing to keep up to date.
- Train
- Bus
- PostBus
- Tram
- Metro
- Boat
- Funicular
- Cable car and gondola
- Walk to the venue
More than a link to Google Maps or SBB
A free link shows a journey too. Here is what it does not do for you.
-
Your visitors stay with you A link sends them to another website or another app. The button opens on your page, in your colours, and visitors then carry on where they left off.
-
Public transport only In a map app, the car is one tap away. The button only suggests public transport, with the walk to your door.
-
You get the figures With a link, you learn nothing. With the button, you know how many visitors search for a journey and which towns they set off from.
Your questions, our answers
Do we need a developer?
No. You paste one line of code, as you would for a video, or you share a simple link. Your web agency can also have it open from a button you already have.
Why not simply link to Google Maps or SBB?
A link works, but it sends visitors away from your website and tells you nothing. The button opens on your page, only suggests public transport and gives you the figures.
Can the button slow our website down?
No. The script is small and the journey window only loads when a visitor clicks.
Which transport is included?
Everything in the official Swiss timetable: trains, buses, PostBus, trams, metros, boats, funiculars and cable cars, with the walk between stops.
Our events take place at several addresses. Is that possible?
Yes. On request, each page of your website can give its own destination address: handy for an events calendar or a programme across several halls.
What if visitors come from abroad?
The button plans journeys within Switzerland. Visitors from abroad enter their first Swiss station.
Are delays shown?
No, the button uses the planned timetable. A link opens the SBB timetable, which shows live traffic.
What happens to our visitors’ data?
The button sets no cookies. Statistics keep the departure town, never the address typed.
