Implementing contactless EMV payments is made quick and easy for the customer. For passengers an improved customer experience is guaranteed due to a familiar payment method and accelerated boarding. No more costly cash handling!
A solution that processes and manages payments requires the highest security measures to be in place. Our solution is PCI-DSS certified and hosted within one of the most resilient and secure environments. Can be used together with EMV Level 2 & 3 certified validators.
Our solution supports contactless EMV global payment standards and is therefore universally accepted. Intuitive Pay-As-You-Go fare structure enables authorities to introduce capping and will guarantee the best price for the customer.
In this model, every tap of a bank card, phone, or smartwatch is processed as a direct transaction for a single trip. The system charges a fixed fare immediately, without additional fare calculations or post-processing. It is straightforward to implement and well suited for networks with flat fares or occasional travel patterns.
Here, taps are recorded and aggregated over a defined settlement period, such as a day, week, or month. Instead of charging per journey, the system calculates the most cost-efficient outcome by applying rules such as daily caps, weekly caps, or multimodal discounts, and then issues a single combined charge. This model ensures passengers always pay the best fare available while reducing the number of payment transactions.
In this setup, the card doesn’t pay at tap; instead, it serves as a credential to verify that the passenger has already purchased a fare product—such as a season pass—stored in the backend. When tapped, the system checks validation status instead of processing a transaction.
Implementing contactless payment in Vilnius public transport is a major step towards modernizing our city’s infrastructure. We are excited to offer a solution that not only simplifies the payment process but also supports our commitment to creating a more efficient and user-friendly public transportation system.
