I understand that this has now been replaced by a new loyalty scheme. Having looked at the new one on their website it seems very complicated to join and doesn't seem to offer any advantage in already having a Carte Tignes. Anybody got involved in the loyalty scheme and found it any use.
The old scheme used to give between 5% & 10% off lift passes - so at least 1 and maybe 3 beers dependent on time in season - I'm a Yorkshireman remember!

I believe the new scheme is tied in with the new lift passes and their electronic readers at many lift stations. (Just keep the new pass in a left breast pocket, no need to show it to a person for checking.) In Val d'Isere there were mixed views about whether our "client fidel" status had any meaning in getting the 5% or 10%. A few people got some discount, many did not.
As to benefits. It claims several things. One seems to be a voucher for money of of next years lift pass if you buy enough lift passes. But in Val d'Isere you can register for a family and get multiple cards (first card 10 euros, additional cards 5 euros each).
I suggest that you register well before travelling. It does no harm (as far as I know) and there is no way to register for it except via the web.

Adrian, thanks for the info - largely confirms what I thought - I considered registering on the web but as I'm off in 2 weeks seems a little late as per the instructions on the web site

Register on-line, and get the return e-mail, with a password & code no. (I think). Go to the lift-pass office at Val Claret (between funicular & Lanches lift) with your pword, code no., photo & 10 euros & let them sort it out. Then 5% off your lift-pass.

Bumping this up rather than starting a new one - can anyone confirm that Claret tow lift and Bollin chairlift are still free? Might be able to get a nice warm up on Saturday afternoon if so

nbt, I registered on Saturday and still haven't had the email back .. having said that if you have to go upto VC then I'd rather be in a bar for my 5%!
Don't know about the Clart tow (don;t even know where it is) but as far as I'm aware the Bollin (lower part) is still free.

still nothing arrived, I'm about to shut down ready for a kip before the stupid o'clock taxi. as fgar as we can see anyway, it costs 10 euros to buy a carte tignes, which then gets you 10 euros off a 6 day lift pass.
