The transport pass is always included in VeniceBox. Even the basic packages let you access all of the public means of transport that Venice has to offer. That means water-buses or land-buses and trams across the entire Mestre and Venice city grids, for the validity period of the VeniceBox package you buy. The pass is activated once you start using it and the days are counted consecutively.

The public transport pass included in the basic package does not provide any discounts or transport to and from Marco Polo airport. But you can buy VeniceBox online and customize its contents to suit your needs.

You may use the transport pass at any time of the day, with no limits, for the validity period of your VeniceBox package. The pass validity period is shown on the package and the activation starts once you use it the first time. From that moment on you may use the pass without any restrictions. Just remember that the first registered day is the day you first use the pass, even if you only use the pass partially.
For example, if you use it at 5 pm on a Thursday, let's say, then Thursday will be registered as the first day of use. The pass activates the minute you start using it and the days are registered consecutively. In any case, it will be valid up to 5pm of following day (in the example of a 24 hours card).

Yes. Buying VeniceBox online is completely secure. Your credit card or debit card information is protected at all times and so there is no need to worry when buying VeniceBox over the internet. Your personal credit card details are not stored on the VeniceBox website. At BBC Solution we use the most secure and reliable technology available on the market. This is the result of an agreement with international banking circuits, which use secure transaction methods like SSL (Secure Socket Layer) which encrypts all information at every stage. In fact, the encryption disguises the transiting information by creating millions of different codes and combinations. This makes your personal details undecipherable. The secure mode is activated when you are asked for your personal payment details to be transmitted to the banks. The browser will shift into said secure mode – a padlock icon on the screen will indicate this. During the online transaction you will be asked for a billing address (which may be different from your home address); this also adds an extra level of data security. All payments are processed by the Bank of Triveneto banking circuit, which sees to the encryption and to applying all required security protocols for online transactions. Once payment is done, your credit card details are in no way stored on the BBC Solution Website, nor are they stored in the banking circuit. That's why any other transaction requires you to provide your information all over again. We suggest you always log out of your browser once you've completed any online purchase, especially when sharing a PC. This will erase the temporary cookies of all of the websites visited on that PC.
