Moovel North America has launched its Caltrain Mobile application with the intention of offering a more convenient and accessible ticketing solution for commuters using the rail service along the San Francisco Peninsula and Santa Clara Valley (SCV). It is said to enable users to purchase, store and access fares directly from their smartphones.

Caltrain Mobile aims to provide users with 24/7 purchasing capabilities; multi-ticket options which are purchasable from one phone and; full compliance with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards for secure mobile transactions. It also offers direct links to access and purchase tickets through the MuniMobile & SCV Transportation Authority's Ezfare apps to make multi-trip experiences more integrated.

Additionally, Caltrain is using Moovel’s mobile ticketing management system to support a range of back-end services which include accounts, orders, ticketing and real-time reporting.

Nat Parker, CEO of Moovel North America, said: "As a unified transportation system, Caltrain is a vital and trusted facilitator of travel on the San Francisco Peninsula. With the availability of Caltrain Mobile, we're able to give riders more ticket purchasing options. We are excited to partner with Caltrain to enhance the mobility experience and work together to advance to a more connected future."
