Masabi has announced that its mobile ticketing technology is now live with New York’s MTA. Using Masabi’s JustRide mobile ticketing platform, riders on Metro North Railroad and Long Island Rail Road will be able to experience a faster and more convenient way to purchase tickets and travel using their smartphones as an all-in-one ticket vending machine and ticket. The railroads’ riders are now set free from cash and the hassle of waiting in line at a vending machine.
Passengers on MNR’s Hudson Line and LIRR’s Port Washington Lines will be able to use their smartphones to buy and display tickets to travel using the MTA eTix mobile ticketing app. Over the next few months more lines will be made available with full rollout completed by the end of the summer. Riders will be able to purchase tickets for both immediate and future travel through their smartphones and tablets.
Masabi will also provide its JustRide Inspect validation application which allows tickets to be scanned using standard smartphones.
The eTix app will be available for all lines on the Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad in the following weeks.
