Sustainable Travel Rewards

Conscious travel in Bremen is a central focus of the city’s Tourism Strategy 2030+, with BremenPay serving as a key initiative to encourage environmentally responsible visitor behavior. Launching in May 2026, the program incentivizes sustainable choices such as rail travel, public transportation use, cycling, and the adoption of reusable products throughout a visitor’s stay.

Participants who demonstrate low-impact behaviors receive tangible benefits, including complimentary refreshments and discounted access to cultural institutions. This approach reinforces sustainability by linking responsible actions with accessible rewards, encouraging broader participation in eco-conscious practices.

Supported by "over 30 partners across mobility, hospitality, and cultural sectors, BremenPay promotes integrated sustainability across the tourism ecosystem." Its low-barrier participation model, requiring only simple verification methods, ensures inclusivity and ease of use. Overall, BremenPay reflects Bremen’s commitment to embedding sustainability into tourism while enhancing environmental awareness and responsible travel behaviors.
