Many small and mid-sized municipalities still rely on paper tickets, punch passes, or token-based systems. These methods are familiar—but they come with hidden costs, inefficiencies, and barriers to growth.
📉 The Hidden Cost of Paper Tickets
Printing, distributing, and validating paper tickets adds up. Cities must manage physical inventory, prevent fraud, and deal with lost or damaged passes. These operational burdens can consume up to 30% of your fare revenue.
📱 Why Go Digital?
Digital tickets—issued via smartphone apps and validated using QR or NFC—eliminate the need for paper entirely. Riders can buy, activate, and scan their tickets instantly. Cities reduce costs, simplify auditing, and offer a modern experience that today’s passengers expect.
