I don’t think this is a blocker, the unpredictability of checks is combined with the uncertainty of whether the photo will or will not be available. Enforcement doesn’t need to be perfect and anyone identfied with a non-matching photo could be prosecuted for a very serious offence.

There is the matter of the photograph(s) of course, so that would have to be doctored too if the Railcard was passed on.
Is that any more likely than with anything else stored on Apple wallets? Other retailers wouldn't allow use of it if that were the case.

I don't think Tesco or Boots have a problem with customers sharing loyalty cards though.
The download code can only be used once (some caveats for things like getting a new phone)

Am attempting to buy a senior railcard on my phone through Trainpal at the moment. I've triggered the payment through my bank phone app but the app has been showing 'Paying'... for about 45 minutes now and I can't unfreeze it. However, the payment amount has registered in my credit card online.
Have tried to contact Trainpal's customer service through the website - no response yet.

My attempts were eventually successful, though TrainPal's customer service isn't the most helpful. You will probably need your bank's app installed on your phone and make sure that any cards on it are up to date, otherwise the whole thing gets hung up at the payment stage.
