Moneytrans gone. Flixbus clients are screwed -- anywhere to buy Flixbus tickets at a reasonable price? - eviltoast

Moneytrans was the only offline way to buy Flixbus tickets without getting hit with commissions. Now #Moneytrans is gone, at least in Brussels. Every Moneytrans shop in Brussels is closed. Anyone know what happened? I find no news on this and the moneytrans.eu [http://moneytrans.eu] website is access-restricted. There is apparently no #Flixbus office anywhere in Belgium. For a €5 ticket, travel agents charge €5 in commission. Indeed, the commission is 100% the cost of the trip in those cases. Fuck me. All unbanked people seem to be fucked by this. Or am I missing something? Did anyone take over the commission-free Flixbus contract from Moneytrans?

    I appreciate the tip but I guess that is useless for Flixbus. Flixbus says they only accept credit card, paypal, google pay or apple pay… Nothing I would go near.
