The EURO<26 youth card is available to ALL young people aged
under 26. The EURO<26 card is valid for one year, and can be
renewed each year until the cardholder reaches the age of 26. Selected
member organisations of the European Youth Card Association raised the
age limit for the cardholders up to 30 years of age (for more
information please go to the news
section).
There is no requirement to be a student;
there is no requirement to be a European
citizen.The EURO<26 card is issued in 41 European countries, and
through our web sales shop at www.euro26.org
The EURO<26 logo is used to mark the places offering
advantages and discounts. Wherever the EURO<26 logo is
displayed, the card gets a discount – the logo on the card
proves that the cardholder is eligible for the discount. (The change of
the age limit to 30 will be reflected in a logo change in 2009).
Card types: The EURO<26 Classic Card, the EURO<26
Student Card, and various EURO<26 co-branded cards (through
partnerships with banks, universities, national railways, local
authorities, etc.)
Card costs: The cost of the EURO<26 cards vary according to
region and local purchasing power, and ranges from approximately 3 to
17 EUR.
Communication Channels EURO<26 is also part of one of the strongest
communication networks with young people in Europe, communicating
directly with over 4.3 million young people through 33+ websites, 22+
magazines, annual guidebooks, newsletters, SMS communities, helpdesks
and more.
Sponsorship/branding Opportunities: Many organisations offer sponsorship/branding
opportunities both on the card itself and also across various
communication channels. Since the EURO<26 youth card is a
not-for-profit activity, all funds raised go back into card development
and youth projects. For more information, please contact the EYCA
member organisation in your country.
