One city.
One platform.

Our Vision

We believe in smart, digital, connected cities where citizens can openly move and live at the
touch of a button, a tap or a swipe, without the need for cash.

With cities racing to become role models, achieving a smart city experience is on top priority for government leaders across the globe. Delivering on this vision implies improving the life of citizens and visitors, in the way they move, commute, experience and live the city.

Improving public transport infrastructure is only part of the equation. Opening up the city to give more freedom to citizens and tourists, reducing traffic and queues also involves removing frictions and barriers everywhere, including in payments, an important part of the user experience.

Automated and digital payments by design

O-CITY is an automated fare collection platform which has been designed with both transport operators and travellers in mind, digitalising the payment process end-to-end. No more paper tickets. Just one app for the entire city.

Join the cashless and contactless movement

O-CITY was born from the vision of digitalising micro-payments as a key driver of a cashless economy and improving citizens wellbeing. Removing frictions and extending value-added services.

A service at everyone's reach

Citizens can move freely across the city and make instant payments using their mobile or bankcard, removing the need for cash or queuing at a ticket counter. Inclusion at its best.

For public transport and beyond

Deliver a frictionless payment experience at every city touch point: tollgate, bus, train, subway, parking facility, bike rental and city tourist attraction.

How O-CITY works for travellers?

No longer wait in queues, no more tickets, a mobile or a payment card suffices to move across the city. All frictions removed from time spent on a journey to the complexity of fares.

  • Latin America: The King of BRT

    Over the recent years, BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) has gained massive popularity. Over 34 million passengers ride on BRT on a daily basis across the globe while 61% of those journeys happen in Latin America. It is therefore not an understatement to say that BRT is the king of transportation in the region! It represents both a convenient and fast travel mode for passengers worldwide. Yet today, the increased demand for modern technologies in BRT deprives operators from almost half of their potential customers, those carrying payment cards and willing to pay digitally.

  • Learning from successful mobile ticketing projects around the world.

    Payments in transport are gradually shifting from cash and closed-loop cards to a more holistic open-loop ticketing experience across all channels. The technological concept behind open-loop allows for the acceptance of any form of payment using fare media through the network of a transit operators or other ticketing service providers. Examples might include QR codes, NFC chips, key fobs, cards, transport virtual cards, smartwatches, and more. The degree of freedom an end-user could enjoy, whether they are a commuter or a business, greatly increases as there is no constraint linked to the use of cash, which remains an unhygienic means of payment in Covid times.
