EMV technology allows the user to validate their bank card directly onboard or at gates, without the need to pre-purchase travel tickets or register. The system will then reconstruct the trip based on the validations made, calculate the applicable fare, and request the debit from the bank Acquirer.
The system is particularly convenient for occasional users, who in this way are not even required to know the fare rules. Thanks to price caps, it is also useful for regular users, who are always charged the best fare, based solely on actual travel.
The use of the bank card as a substitute for the physical support intended to host the travel ticket is an advantage for the transport company, which is not burdened with the costs of issuing, distributing, and selling Portable Objects. It is also convenient for the user, who always has an access tool for transport at hand, one they are already familiar with. Finally, it is a benefit for the entire community in environmental terms.
The EMV module includes interfaces to the banking world and is perfectly integrated with the other modules of the Pluservice offer.
