Swiss Half Fare Card vs Half Fare Travelcard on SBB App - help w ticket purchase

I created an account at SBB.ch/en. Then I purchased the Swiss half fare card on the website for 120 chf. When I log into my SBB account on the mobile app (iPhone), I can see the Swiss half fare card QR code. When purchasing tickets on the app, to get the half fare, it asks for travelcards. The list to select from only shows “half fare travelcard” and not the “Swiss half fare card”. As I understand it, these are different cards. What do I select or do to get the 50% discount if I only have the Swiss half fare card? Thank you for your help!

You need to add to the "Half Fare Travelcard" as a reduction, both cards are equivalent in their effect.

you can btw. add multiple passengers to your purchase, even on the app, and for each indicate if they have the HFC.
