Swiss half fare card for tourists

In the past, I've bought a Swiss half fare card valid for one month. Now, all I can find is the one available for 1 year and it has a higher price. Did they get rid of the tourist half fare card with the shorter duration? When I google it, I can still find it, but there is an error when I try to book it leading me to think it is a defunct link. Has anyone purchased it this year? I didn't know if it is worth waiting until I arrive and trying to get it from the train station, but I need to purchase it for 4 adults, and with the falling dollar exchange rate, it would be nice to go ahead and buy it now. I can try calling, but I thought it was worth checking here first in case I'm missing something obvious.
Thanks!

I suspect you're on a site for Swiss residents. The half-fare card for visitors is still available.
Have a great trip!

It's still available, you just weren't looking in the right spot. There is no reason to buy in advance, but if you feel like the exchange rate is enough of an issue for you personally, go for it.

Thank you for your replies! I was looking at the wrong place apparently. This was very helpful
