10 journey card in Belgium. Can I use it between different stations, every trip?
I am going to travel around Belgium and I was considering buying the 10 journey card.
I read about it, but it seems that you can only use all the trips between 2 predefined stations.
It's not clear at all because I got the information from a friend that I could use it between any stations, each trip.
Anyone knows how this works?

The Belgian railway company NMBS/SNCB offers a variety of passes and cards. Depending on your needs, you might need a different pass or card. Following cards are available for occasional trips.
Go Pass 10
- Age 25 or lower
- Between any destination in Belgium (not including border stations)
- Priced at € 51
Rail Pass (Go Pass equivalent for people over 25)
- Any age
- Between any destination in Belgium (not including border stations)
- Priced at € 76
10-Journey Card
- Any age
- Between two specific stations (not including border stations)
- Price depends on the two stations
All passes and cards are valid for a single year and offer 10 journeys. These journeys can be used by multiple people at the same time if compliant with the pass or card's restrictions. For example if you are 25 years old and your friend is 26 years old, you can not use the same pass. Unless both of you would use a Rail Pass.
More information can be found at the Belgian railroad's official website.

Can I use my ticket at a different station?
Tickets that have been purchased with an \u201cany available route\u201d option can be used with any train company that operates between the stations you wish to travel. Any time tickets are the most flexible and can be used on any train on the chosen day of departure for the journey you have booked.Can you use a train ticket more than once in a day?
You may need to travel by a specific route or train company but the Ticket will state this. You are allowed to break your journey at any point, or more than once if you wish. This means that you do not have to make the whole of your journey at the same time or, where allowed, on the same day.Are trains free in Belgium?
For those with concerns about international travel, the Belgian government has given them a major incentive to take a Belgian 'staycation' instead: free rail journeys for the rest of the year to anywhere in the country.Do you need photocard for weekly Travelcard?
Photocards are only needed when buying seven day or longer Travelcards at National Rail ticket offices. If you will be a solo traveller and plan to buy a seven day Travelcard loaded on an Oyster card you will not need a Photocard.BRUSSELS, BELGIUM 2022 TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS AND MUST NEEDED DOCUMENTS
