Bus and subway users in New York could soon be using contactless payments to pay for their journeys. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) has decided to step up plans which have been trialling since 2006.
It has this week released a Concept of Operations (ConOps) for a contactless, open standards fare payment system. The document sets out provisions for the system's design, creation and implementation and the MTA is asking for firms working in payments to get involved. Comments can be submitted until 25th May and a presentation is scheduled for 10th May which already has AmEx and JP Morgan Chase signed up.
