The company is working in partnership with Hungary’s first qualified certification authority, NetLock Ltd, to develop interoperable and flexible transit fare collection solutions in a highly secure environment. OSPT Alliance’s CIPURSE™ open standard has been identified by the company as a key initiative which will benefit transit authorities and provide them with an advanced foundation to establish these solutions.
Ferenc Pető, IT Project Manager at Netlock Ltd, comments: “The development of flexible transport fare collection solutions is a priority for Discovery RDC and Netlock. Transport users need a seamless and intuitive way to buy and validate their tickets, even if there is a complex fee calculation and validation process operating in the ground. We believe the CIPURSE standard offers an advanced foundation for these efforts and we look forward to supporting OSPT Alliance in establishing this next-generation of automated fare collection solutions.”
