Metro Magazine Webinar - Fare Payments-as-a-Service: A Better Way to Modernize Your Fare Collection System Post COVID-19

Written by James Gooch | 27-May-2020 10:27:30

Will the new fare payments world post-pandemic be different to the one we left behind? We can already see that people will be using, and demanding, safe ways to pay - for both riders and operators this means avoiding handling cash and tickets as much as possible.

 

During this on-demand webinar, we explore the potential changes required for fare payments teams as well as a new way of delivering these services called ‘Fare Payments-as-a-Service’. We also look at how this model for systems delivery can set agencies up for enabling Mobility-as-a-Service.
