The MBTA and Masabi have agreed to a contract for Masabi to continue delivering mobile ticketing services across all MBTA Commuter Rail and Commuter Boat routes. The agreement will enhance the MBTA’s existing mobile-ticketing system.
Improvements that MBTA commuters can expect to see when the updated ticketing-system deploys later this year include:
– Mobile wallets such as MasterPass and ApplePay that will streamline the purchase process
– Favorite and recent trips saved on the home screen
– Improved look and feel and purchase flow
– Electronic validation of tickets for enhanced security.
“Working closely with our mTicket partners, the MBTA is stepping up its efforts to leverage cutting-edge technology to improve our customers’ experience. This innovative app makes the fare collection process easier and more efficient for both Commuter Rail riders and the MBTA,” said MBTA Chief Administrator Brian Shortsleeve.
