A new school year begins, and we hope for a permanent return to normal student life. This does not make student discounts less important. On the contrary, a return may result in greater expenses in many areas.

Extended collaboration between Mecenat and The Swedish Public Transport Association
The Swedish Public Transport Association has increased the requirements for companies that want to leave a student discount with their affiliated transport companies. Mecenat is one of the two actors that has met the new requirements and thus been commissioned to mediate student travel discounts.
