Init’s new passenger terminal Proxmobil3 supports all variations of e-ticketing

Germany-headquartered 511 Init will use the ITS World Congress Melbourne to highlight the company’s revolutionary ID-based ticketing solution that helps public transport companies to offer their passengers more convenience while streamlining their sales.
According to Init, other than traditional card-based ticketing systems, ID-based systems hold the customer data and business logic in the backend system, such as Mobilevario. This approach makes the ticketing system much more flexible. Moreover, the open architecture approach of Mobilevario allows the easy integration of various sales channels and multi-modal offers. In addition, open payment can be added allowing passengers to not only use media provided by the transport companies, but also e-ticketing media that they already possess, like EMV based contactless credit or bank cards or NFC smartphones.
