The 16-17 Saver was introduced in 2019 [3] in order to allow people aged 16 and 17 to access child fares, which are normally only available to children under 16.

The Railcard was launched nationally on 3 March 2014 [5] at a cost of £30.00, although for the first six months a 10% discount was given if it was bought online and a promotional code was quoted.
