Eating well, caffeinating often, and exploring the city shouldn’t break your budget. That’s why we’ve launched a Student Program: Budapest university students get the Local Discount Card for free (yes, 0 Ft) by signing up in the app with their campus email. You’ll save ~10% at partner cafés, lunch spots, bars and shops across the city (especially around your campus). And when you head to another city, you’ll also unlock a special student price for our Tour Pass, so you can learn a new place on your own schedule.
