Greater Anglia has a new offer for off peak travel on weekdays.
https://www.greateranglia.co.uk/offers/wake-up-your-weekdays

They split their region into 3 zones. A off peak return within one zone (eg Cambridge to Liverpool Street) is £10. If you cross 2 zones, its £15, 3 zones its £20.

There are some anomalies. Whilst Cambridge to Liverpool Street is £10, from Ely it is £20, even though you could get a £4.60 return between Ely and Cambridge.

Vary attractive offer. Even from as close to London as Billericay, and holding a railcard, this saves money. Must save even more for non railcard holders further out.

I spotted these tickets in the fares data and wondered what they were. Now we know. They are called 'GA Promotion' and C4 restricted (presumably, worth checking how they print). If correct this would mean no break of journey restriction.

Edit: actually those tickets could be something else.

According to the FAQ on the page linked in the OP, "No break of journey is allowed."

They are also only available online, according to the same page.

These fares are not shown in the NRE Journey Planner and not offered if you select (more expensive) tickets and then transfer to GA to complete a purchase.
You must go via GA in the first place (not sure about Trainline).

I tried looking at the web site another TOC and they don't show up. Have to be booked online using GA web site or app, or trainline.com
