Public transport operators of Erfurt & Mittelthüringen address remote work with weekly fare capping

Improving user experience while reducing costs

The public transport agencies of Erfurt (EVAG) and Mittelthüringen (VMT) faced costly vending machines and inflexible fares. To address these challenges, the agencies implemented a user-friendly mobile ticketing app using Check-In Check-Out-technology provided by FAIRTIQ. With a swipe on their phone, users ban complexity and cash from their rides - including a best price guarantee on weekly basis. This way, the award-winning project addresses changes in the way we work and live.
