Enghouse Transportation is part of a paradigm shift in the industry to move away from those “Closed-Loop” payments systems and adopt the new Open-Loop contactless payments. The upside to Open-Loop contactless is tremendous. The company’s software solution enables transit agencies to supply fare capping and discounts to specific customers and enable tap and pay transactions that would allow transits quicker boarding times, contactless payments for health/pandemic concerns, and access to a customer portal where transit riders could download receipts, view their travel history, or pay account balances. The system can also enhance travel planning.
