Bringing legacy ticketing offers into the mobile age with Thales Trusted Service Hub (TSH)
Mobile ticketing in transit provides several benefits for both transit operators and commuters.
It is more convenient for commuters to purchase tickets anytime without visiting a ticket booth or vending machine. It also saves time by reducing the need to wait in line to buy tickets or search for exact changes.
Digitisation of ticketing also delivers significant benefits for transit agencies.
In addition to dramatically improving the user experience, mobile ticketing saves on many operating costs associated with issuing physical fare products.
Not surprisingly, the value of mobile ticketing transactions is predicted to rise by 200% between 2022 and 2027, according to a report by Juniper.
There’s more.
Digitisation contributes to more sustainable business processes. By going mobile, transit agencies can cut both waste and CO2 emissions.
