Mountain Metropolitan Transit (MMT) in Colorado Springs has adopted digital app and in-vehicle hardware from Masabi. MMT buses are now equipped with Masabi's Justride Validator technology, which communicates with the new account-based contactless digital fare-payments system, which saw its first phase roll out in 2022 with the RideMMT mobile app.
Account-based ticketing systems shift where the information is stored, from the card to the back office, and this is where the fare calculation happens. This supports fare capping.
Masabi's fare-payments-as-a-service approach means that its platform is multi-tenant and used by multiple agencies. Masabi technology has been deployed in other small to mid-size transit agencies in the Midwest managed by NEORide, a council of governments representing 29 transit agencies across seven states.
