To achieve our mission to make rail and coach travel easier for customers in all our markets, we invest behind four strategic priorities for long-term growth: growing supply and enhancing the customer experience, building demand, increasing customer lifetime value, and growing Trainline Solutions.

Grow supply and enhance the customer experience

Grow supply:

We are continually improving and optimising our supply on our mobile App and web interface, offering customers access to unrivalled value and the widest choice.

As European rail markets liberalise, we integrate new carrier inventory, providing one convenient online experience for customers.

Enhance the customer experience:

Providing a smart, intuitive and seamless experience for our customers is at the heart of our business.

Through customer insights and research, personalisation, data and AI, we offer features that enhance the journeys of our customers at every stage, from planning and booking through to post-sales.

Build demand

Our key focus is to strengthen demand by deploying our marketing playbook. We have built a strong brand, particularly in the UK, and are growing consumer awareness in Europe. The headroom for Trainline to grow across our core markets remains significant.

We continue to deploy our marketing playbook in order to drive customer acquisition, encouraging more customers to choose more environmentally sustainable modes of transport.

Increase customer lifetime value

Increasing customer lifetime value means deepening our relationships with customers. This includes customers using Trainline frequently for more of their travel needs.

While helping to drive net ticket sales growth, increasing customer lifetime value is also improving our customer economics, allowing us in turn to invest more in product innovation and customer acquisition.

Grow Trainline Solutions

Trainline Solutions is playing a key role in providing reach and scale to rail operators and for travel sellers.

Within Trainline Solutions, business travel is our largest growth opportunity, both through our branded channels and our B2B Distribution business.
