Manly Fast Ferry has launched a mobile ticketing service through 6870 Masabi’s JustRide platform with the intention of removing the need for passengers to top up with a smart card or wait in a line to buy a ticket. The app can download the free on Android or Apple smart phones.


Called My Fast Ferry, passengers can pay for their ticket using credit cards or debit cards, which is then displayed on screen as an encrypted 2D barcode and animated digital watermark. The ticket can then be activated, scanned before boarding or shown to a member of the Ferry Team. The app also allows users to purchase food and drink onboard the Manly Fast Ferry bar.

Masabi are also deploying the Inspect Handheld App, which is said to enable the staff to scan the mobile barcode tickets in under a second.
