 From the 1950s to the late 1980s, single medium systems such as tokens, paper
or magnetic stripe tickets were generally used. During the 1990s, ticketing
started a transformation process made possible by the emergence of new
information and communication technologies (ICT) such as location services,
real-time passenger information services as well as contactless smartcards.
This technological revolution in ticketing has been creating significant
improvements from a user experience perspective, and a new era of marketing
opportunities for public transport authorities (PTAs) and operators: the
contactless smartcards have supported in developing a strong relationship with
customers, knowing them and better understanding their needs.
