Webinar hosted and supported by Intelligent Transport
Watch this exclusive webinar, brought to you by Intelligent Transport, to gain insight into the cutting-edge innovations in ticketing and payment technology that are reshaping the transportation landscape.
By adopting the latest transport ticketing and payment technology, operators are able to streamline transactions and offer a more seamless journey to passengers. Crucial for efficiency, reducing queues and enhancing user experience, it modernises and simplifies public transportation systems and removes the pressure of requiring intimate knowledge of the network off of passengers. But what are the challenges of implementing these new technologies, as well as having to keep up-to-date with what’s new? How do operators know which system will work the best for them and their passengers? And, above all, what is being done to support passengers who are not as technically savvy or are unbanked?
During this session, join our industry experts as they explore the cutting-edge innovations in ticketing and payment technology that are reshaping the transportation landscape. From contactless solutions to mobile wallets, join us to discover insights into the future of frictionless and secure transactions in the realm of modern mobility.
