Your friend probably simply meant another product, the “rail pass”:
Travel alone or with others for the low price of only € 7.60 per trip. The Rail Pass takes you where and when you want to go.
- Discount pass: 10 journeys for € 76 in 2nd class
- To any destination in Belgium
- 1 or more passengers on one Rail Pass
- No restrictions for a year
- More comfort: € 117 in 1st class
The 10-journey card can presumably be cheaper if you only travel on one route and follows slightly different rules (can be combined with family discounts, etc.) There is also the Go Pass 10, which is basically a “Rail pass” for people under 26 years of age and is even cheaper.

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
Rail Pass (Go Pass equivalent for people over 25)
10-Journey Card
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.
