It utilises the Tap 2 Use solution from Worldline for the account management of a commuter.
On the other hand, the solution supports Bluetooth-based passenger recognition and virtual validations generation with the help of Trapeze’s ComfoAccess facilities.
Using Bluetooth, the payment tool detects commuters as they enter a vehicle.
The solution also utilises transport network data to create check in and check out taps and then applies the best tariff calculation process to handle payments.
