Circula PT — income-based discount on travel passes (formerly Passe Social+)
A nationwide discount on monthly travel passes for people on low incomes or with a permanent disability of 60% or more. There are two levels: A — 50% off (for recipients of the solidarity supplement for the elderly, recipients of RSI and people with a disability of 60% or more); B — 25% off (pensions and unemployment benefits of up to 1.2 IAS, long-term unemployment, households with income per person of up to 1.2 IAS).
Where you come across it. Getting a monthly travel pass on a low income.
The discount does not apply at all to the 20-euro rail pass. It is loaded onto an ordinary transport card — Cartão CP, Navegante or Andante — but if you already have a CP card, you will be asked to get a new one issued for the discount. The old name, Social+, is still used in everyday speech and on signs.
