The tickets can also be purchased via SMS by sending the text message "DPT24" or "DPT32" to the number 902 06.
------------------------------------------
Single and transfer tickets are sold through yellow ticket vending machines (also in English, coins only), at ticket offices located at some metro stations, at a Tabák/Trafika, at some newsstands, and at tourist information centers. You can also buy tickets by using your mobile phone and sending the text message "DPT24" or "DPT32" to the number 902 06. Your ticket will usually be sent to your phone within one minute.
A ticket must be punched at the entrance to the metro station and on the tram/bus to mark the start of the validation period. If you requested a ticket through an SMS, you must have received your ticket before you enter the vehicle or the paid zone on the subway.
