Germany-headquartered 511 Init is highlighting the company’s revolutionary ID-based ticketing solution that helps public transport companies to offer their passengers more convenience while streamlining sales.

According to Init, other than traditional cardbased 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.

Thousands of London bus users already pay their fares using contactless bank cards instead of TfL Oyster cards, which have been widely used over the past decade.
