Security

Ordering tickets on www.thalys.com is perfectly secure. Your payment details are protected by SSL V3 encryption, making transactions completely safe.

Secure sites are indicated with a padlock located at the bottom of the page. This means all banking information entered on Thalys.com is completely secure.
When paying online, the addresses used start with https:// (the 's' stand for secure): the data is encrypted and therefore protected before being transferred over the Internet.
This protocol is used by most banks and major online merchants. It provides maximum security for credit card numbers transmitted via the Internet.

Your credit card number will not be saved in the site’s sales history, which is an additional safeguard.
