Mobility payments

Let's talk

A ready-made solution for contactless mobility payments in public transport

Contactless mobility payments empower system integrators and public transport operators to enhance accessibility, convenience, and efficiency. They drive ridership growth, boost revenues, and reduce fare collection costs, delivering seamless experiences for travelers worldwide.

How it works?

Faster Boarding with Contactless Fares

Passengers tap their contactless EMV bankcard, smartphone, or other device on validators in stations and vehicles, and the system calculates the best fare based on level of usage. Switchio’s payment switch then optimizes payment transfers between transport providers and acquirers/payment processors.
