fare gates at most stations so you can't get to the platforms without paying; rural or low-ridership lines check fares at the train door

which is to say--there is no possibility of using the service if you don't pay; no inspection you can avoid etc even just be being lucky

How often do the trains/metros come? In Berlin they come and go every 5 minutes [depends on line and S-Bahn different from U-Bahn)

Depends on the route--in major cities, up to every 2 minutes. More rural lines, where you'll likely pay at the door, can be as rare as 4/day

Assuming pay-at-door, you usually pay while exiting--pick up a ticket when you get on & an updating fare table tells u how much to pay

payment depends on distance traveled, so the ticket you get will just say where you boarded--the table shows payment based on boarding stop

So match the name on your ticket with the name on the board, and the fare will update as you move down the line
