Student ID instead of identity card?

I wanted to ask if I could show a student ID card instead of an ID card at Deutsche Bahn. I want to get an online ticket, but I would have to provide identification. Since I unfortunately don't have a BahnCard, an EC card, or an ID card, I wanted to ask if a student ID card would work.

No, I can’t. They need a card that they can pull through their reader, and that doesn’t work with a student ID

You must have a passport. He’ll be fine.

Unfortunately, this is not possible with a student ID.

No, I can’t. You can order the bonus card for free and then use it as an ID card. If you are under 19 years old, you can also order a Youth Railway Card for 10 Euros and use it as an ID Card. All this takes about 1 week of ordering time. If you want to hurry, just buy the ticket at the vending machine.

No, a student ID is not a valid legitimation document. You are also obliged to be owned by an ID card or passport. So you should have one of them at home

Hello, from 16 years old, you will be sending an ID card with you

Just to correct it. From 16 on, you are obliged to own an ID card, but not to keep it always with you
