Following successful field testing, the first phase of the 6870 Masabi MTA eTix apps developed for New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), is expected to launch on select lines of the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) and Metro-North (MNR) in June.

The app, which allows customers to purchase train tickets via a mobile device, will first debut on the LIRR’s Port Washington Branch and Metro-North’s Hudson Line and will be available to all Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North customers by the end of 2016.

MTA eTix will be accessed as a stand-alone app or through the popular TrainTime apps, where customers can check schedules and see service status. MTA eTix offers account management tools, giving railroad customers the ability to secure refunds for unused mobile tickets, request duplicate receipts and manage profile info such as password and linked credit card numbers.
