Your Experiences!

Hello. I am a happy holder of an ISIC student card and want to share my experience. In general, when I entered Charles University in Prague, I was so happy to learn that you could get an ISIC instead of a regular student card because in my country, there was no such possibility. Getting an ISIC takes 5 minutes and costs €14 per year, but it's definitely worth it because the discounts you get can save you much more.

The most important advantage for me was the discounts on food because I hate cooking and constantly dine at restaurants between classes. In fact, ISIC discounts can be found in almost all the most popular food chains: KFC, UGO, Bageterie Boulevard, 360 Pizza, Burger King, Tchibo (I love their coffee), Subway, Fruitisimo. In total, there are 55 brands in the food category alone. Most often, there is either a separate ISIC menu at a discount or simply discounts on the entire bill.

Do you know how I found out about all these discounts? There is an Alive App where all this is displayed. Also, you can add your personal ISIC there, so you don’t need to carry a physical card anymore as you can always show the electronic version. Also, the Alive App displays limited seasonal offers, so I recommend checking it out.

As for my other experience, I also bought my iPad and Mac with a 10% discount. There are good discounts on other brands of electronics as well. Therefore, if you need a new phone or laptop for studying, this will help you save money.

Overall, I'm very happy with the ISIC experience and I don't even want to graduate because I'll lose it.

I'd like to share my personal experience using the ISIC card. For me, it's an indispensable tool.

It's more than just a way to save money on museum visits or bus rides. With this card, you can get discounts at a bunch of places - think hundreds of shops and companies. A good tip is to always check if a store gives a discount for ISIC cardholders. It feels great to save on things like meals or when ordering stuff online from ALZA. Plus, you can get lower prices at Tesco supermarkets, on plane tickets, and lots more.

Traveling in the Czech Republic becomes way cheaper too, thanks to the ISIC card. You can get half off your ticket price on Czech Railways. And with bus services like FlixBus and RegioJet, exploring new cities becomes more budget-friendly.

The ISIC card even helps you find cheap flights on Kiwi, making it easier on your wallet to travel.
Whether you're deciding to travel last-minute or planning a vacation, these savings make it much more manageable and enjoyable for students.

All in all, the ISIC card really does make student life easier and more fun.

Taking Student Life to the Top!
The Adventure of My ISIC Card
The ISIC card revolutionized my student experience and offered and continues to offer unprecedented opportunities and savings. It's not just a card, it's a key that unlocks a world of opportunities, and it's fully digital, so if you're someone like me who doesn't like to use cards and uses the phrase "oh, I forgot", it's a great convenience for you too. From travel to entertainment, the ISIC card consistently offers surprisingly serious discounts. There really is no limit to its flexibility; I'm sure it won't leave me alone even on intercontinental adventures. Beyond the savings, the card gives access to special events and cultural experiences. What makes the ISIC card different is the sense of community among students around the world, which I love. In the circle of many of my friends studying both in Turkey and abroad, especially at my own university, having an ISIC makes it fun to make dinner plans, go out for coffee or challenge each other to see where we can get the best discount when going to entertainment centers. I mean, it is not just an identity; it is also a symbol of unity and solidarity. Throughout my academic journey, the ISIC card has been an invaluable companion/friend. Based on my own experience, I sincerely recommend you to get it as soon as possible and get rid of the questions in your mind and get it as soon as possible.
With the ISIC card the possibilities are endless and the journey is unforgettable.

Hello, I'm Dogan,

Actually, you know it as The Other Way. I didn't know where to start, how to start. Actually, I know the starting point, but I don't know where and how the end point will be. Then let's start where I know.

I have been on the road for as long as I can remember. Life has brought me together with the roads in a way that I cannot or do not understand. The biggest factor in this was my family's profession. From an early age, I lived in different parts of Anatolia for a very long time, which led me to carry out my education and training in many large and small cities of Anatolia. I think this is where I feel that I don't belong anywhere and my soul is free.

Unlike people who devote themselves to the road, I think what makes me different is that I try to make my travels cheaper or free. From the moment I got bored of the situation I was in and started looking for "Other Ways", many opportunities came my way, or I don't know if I created these opportunities. Yes, I also travel individually from time to time, but 80% of my travels are generally projects, trainings and exchange programs, as can be understood from my previous sentences.

This is where the ISIC card comes into play. For someone like me, who is constantly traveling and participating in various projects and trainings, the ISIC card is not only a discount tool, but also a lifestyle. Thanks to this card, I save a lot of money on my travels and projects. From museums to bus tickets, from shopping to dining, I benefit from the discounts offered by my ISIC card in many areas. Especially thanks to the discounts on ticket prices, it provides relief in my budget.

The ISIC card has really become an indispensable tool for people like me who are active travelers and constantly participating in different activities. By using this card, I have both a more economical and a more enjoyable travel experience. Thanks to the advantages offered by the ISIC card, I can carry out my travels in a more efficient and planned manner.

In short, the ISIC card is not just a discount card for me, but it has become my most valuable assistant in my travels. Thank you ISIC!

In conclusion, the ISIC card has become not just a discount card for me, but a tool that makes my life easier and more enjoyable. Thanks to this card, I can save my budget and enjoy my travels more.

Hello, my name is Eva Špoljarević. I am a student continuing my education in Croatia. Additionally, I had the opportunity to study in various countries through the Erasmus+ program. Throughout this journey, one thing that has been incredibly helpful to me is my ISIC card.

I use my ISIC card both in Croatia and in other countries where I studied with Erasmus+. The discounts and benefits provided by the card have significantly reduced my expenses throughout my student years. From museum entries to public transportation fares, restaurant discounts to store promotions, my ISIC card has been immensely beneficial.

As long as I remain a student, I am thrilled to have the right to use my ISIC card. Even though I pay the annual card fee, the discounts it offers more than make up for this cost. Especially while studying abroad, as someone who experiences the challenges of living on a student budget, the ISIC card has been a lifesaver for me.

Hello, I'm Ahmet Sevban,

I am a 2nd year computer engineering student who is still in the middle of university life. As you know, the course intensity and difficulty of engineering students are very intense. As you can imagine, I take advantage of these intense semesters by going to free projects during the summer.

In the countries where we go to these projects, we want to reduce the cost of our vacation by taking advantage of special opportunities for students as in our country. This is exactly where we come across an excellent opportunity like the ISIC card. With the ISIC card, you will be able to prove that you are a student wherever you are in the world and benefit from special opportunities for students. You may say, "What good is this card for me? It is definitely very useful. For example, you have traveled to a country and there is a museum on your itinerary that you really want to visit. Considering the high prices of museums for tourists, it may be difficult for us to enter the museum financially. But there is a solution of course! ISIC card :) By creating your ISIC card and proving your student status internationally, you can benefit from student discounts and visit museums at affordable prices.

There are also special discounts for ISIC card users in various shops, cafes, etc. I will tell you about my favorite discount.

Hello, I am Mehmethan. I am a computer engineering student and during this process I experienced erasmus+ study mobility. With the advice of my school, I decided to get an ISIC card and I didn't realize that it has so many advantages. Until I used it in Lithuania... While some places can be a problem with my university student card, no place I showed my ISIC card, which is an international student card, had any difficulties for me to use the opportunities for students. From bus tickets to library memberships, I was able to use student facilities everywhere. There are even many companies that ISIC has an agreement with. From the food sector, to hotels, to transportation, I was able to get student discounts as well as additional discounts. I strongly recommend you to get an ISIC card as you can use it anywhere in the world. I wish you all the best moments with lots of travel, lots of fun and using ISIC card advantages.

Hello, I'm Serhat Can AKÇA. I studied Civil Engineering at Bursa Technical University and graduated a year ago. Currently, I started working in a company in Istanbul.

As a student at TED University studying English Language Teaching, my journey has been filled with enriching experiences, particularly through my passion for traveling and exploring new cultures.

I learned about the ISIC card through a university event in my first year. The card, widely recognized for offering discounts to students, intrigued me. I quickly realized that the cost of the card was more than offset by the discounts it provided, especially in big cities like Ankara and Istanbul. From reduced prices on transportation to savings on dining and entertainment, the ISIC card became a crucial part of my student life.

In Ankara and Istanbul, the ISIC card opened doors to various experiences. I enjoyed discounted movie tickets, lower prices on books and stationery, and even special offers at cafes and restaurants. As a student who loves to explore, these savings allowed me to enjoy the cities without breaking the bank. The card also offered discounts on public transportation, which made commuting more affordable and convenient.

Whether it was a discounted train ride to explore a new city or a reduced entry fee to a famous museum, the ISIC card was my constant companion, making travel more accessible and affordable.

Reflecting on my experiences, I can confidently say that the ISIC card has been an invaluable asset. The discounts and benefits it offers have significantly enriched my student experience, both in Turkey and abroad. For any student who loves to travel and explore, I highly recommend investing in an ISIC card. The savings far outweigh the cost, making it a must-have for every student adventurer.

My journey with the ISIC card has been an adventure filled with savings and unforgettable experiences. From the bustling streets of Istanbul to the historic landmarks abroad, the ISIC card has been my ticket to a richer, more affordable student life. If you're a student like me, eager to explore and experience the world, don't miss out on the opportunities the ISIC card can offer. It's more than just a discount card; it's a passport to a world of experiences.

My ISIC Card Experience in Greece
