With NextWave, transit agencies can support cloud-based services such as: leverage NFC technology to turn a mobile phone into a contactless fare card, enable mobile fare purchases by turning NFC enabled mobile phones into the equivalent of a ticket vending machine that can re-load contactless transit cards, offer customer support through mobile self-services, reviewing balances, transactions and fare charges and receiving notifications about account status and usage. Also, this platform helps travelers plan journeys and receive alerts about travel conditions and generate revenues by leveraging advertising and mobile marketing opportunities.
Cubic first implemented mobile ticketing technology in 2006 and currently hosts travel barcode ticketing services in Germany for five public transport associations representing 260 individual transport operators with 10 million customers.
Cubic Transportation Systems delivers integrated systems for transportation and traffic management, delivering tools for travelers to choose ways to travel and pay for their journeys, and enabling transportation authorities and agencies to manage demand across the entire transportation network.
In October 2011, Cubic Transportation Systems developed the Tri-Reader 3 device which processes contactless EMV bank cards for use in public transit revenue management systems.
