This forum has one:

RailUK Tickets, powered by Trainsplit

TrainSplit is a free service that makes it easy to find the cheapest train tickets for your journey.

Split Your Ticket, the forum's ticketing site, TrainSplit, Splitticketing are all whitelabel sites of TrainSplit/Raileasy, and will all use the same split ticketing algorithm.

The exact share of saving or even a booking fee will depend on which site you use, though!

TrainSplit and the forum's site would be my recommendation as they'll both be on the lowest share of saving and with no booking fee. The forum's site will also provide a proportion of revenue to help support the forum, too.

Apart from the Trainsplit white labels, Uber (via Omio) has splits and Trainline does. But Trainsplit ones gives you the most options for buying tickets

Trip.com also offers split tickets when purchasing.

Railsmartr (Assertis' in house brand) also offers split tickets, and doesn't charge for amendments or refunds (where permitted by ticket conditions).

I think they use a split search engine they developed themselves, so can find (or miss) splits found by the Railways engine commonly used.

TrainPal has a decent split ticket algorithm, and doesn't take commission or charge a booking fee.

Trainline do sell split tickets, charge a booking fee capped at £2.99, but in my experience have the worst split ticket algorithm out of the lot so tends to be most expensive.

If you're really out for a bargain then arguably using a mix to find the best splits will be desirable.

They do take something like 10% on some, but not all, bookings now.

Guess they realised it was completely unsustainable.

Interesting, that must be very recent.

It is 12% but capped at £1.99:

TrainPal charges 12% of the difference between the original price and the SplitTickets price with a maximum SplitTickets service fee of £1.99.

It does make reference to a general booking fee but I've never seen it come up, and can't work out under what conditions it would.

In that sense it falls into a similar camp as Trainline, where their fee is capped at £2.99, split ticketing or not.

In that case I revise my suggestion to ScotRail, who as of July also offer split tickets on their website and app and charge no fees/commission.

But only a maximum of one split, like all the other Trainline booking engines.
