Mobile Ticketing on Public Transport

Swiftpass head office is based in the UK. A densely populated, small island that is seemingly always on the move. Latest UK statistics show that we have 32m cars (for a total population of 60m), and we use them to drive nearly 500 billion km every year. One billion of us travel by train every year, there are 4.6 billion passenger journeys by bus, while 216 million take flights out of our 59 airports.*

Given this year round, intensive use of every major means of transport - it is no surprise that the UK is at the forefront of the development and integration of ‘intelligent infrastructure':

"Historically, when we have improved the transport system and reduced costs, people have travelled more. While this has supported economic growth, it has led to congestion, rising costs of maintaining the infrastructure we already have in place, greater fragility of the system, and environmental costs. Just as science and technology gave us the freedom to move, they will play a key role in helping us to respond to these new challenges. Advances in sensor technology, computing power and telecommunications can allow us to build intelligence into the infrastructure." Sir David King ScD FRS - Chief Scientific Adviser to HM Government, Head of the Office of Science and Technology

Swiftpass mobile ticketing is part of such an intelligent infrastructure. At Swiftpass, we believe that our products and systems, allow mass transport operators to deliver solutions to each and every one of their passengers.

For further information on how our ticketing systems can be integrated and installed in your transport business please visit rail & road, or air & sea.
