Public Transport Operator ACTV S.p.A. (Azienda del Consorzio Trasporti Veneziano) improves passenger flow, promotes tourism in the historic city with RFID smart ticketing service.
ACTV S.p.A. operates land- and water-based public transportation throughout the province of Venice, with the primary mode of transport being the waterbus, or vaporetto. To enable a faster, smoother flow of passengers, ACTV employs secure and affordable contactless RFID smart tickets from Confidex throughout Venice’s waterbus routes– a city that sees more than 20 million tourists a year. In total, ACTV operates 600 land buses and 160 waterbuses, carrying nearly 200 million passengers per year in and around Venice.
Due to the tremendous volume of passenger traffic carried by the waterbuses daily, ACTV required a system offering speed, ease of use, reliability and security, as well as a provider capable of delivering ticketing solutions for their changing needs. Besides designing and manufacturing high quality RFID smart tickets, an RFID company offers a full range of other services, including industry-leading turnaround times for changing ticket artworks, efficient customer communication through dedicated team, full end-to-end traceability, unmatched personalization options and capabilities, and flexible ticket deliveries according to customer needs. “We designed an affordable ticketing solution for ACTV that ensures tickets with enhanced durability to resist normal wear and tear in humid conditions, security against fraud, and full compliance with ACS automatic fare collection machines,” said Pierre Chadebech, Senior Director for RFID Smart Ticketing. “The tickets are customized with visually appealing advertisements to promote seasonal tourist activities in Venice, and the transit tickets are often programmed to also allow access to events, festivals or casinos with varying fare schedules, per the customer’s wishes.”
ACTV uses several different configurations of RFID smart tickets, including single tickets, reel tickets, fanfold and a unique custom size design with visual personalization.
Contactless tickets deliver improved ease of use, security and reliability versus magnetic stripe tickets or cards. Ayrıca, they enable reduced maintenance costs because the tickets are waved over the reader instead of inserted, resulting in improved passenger flow and user satisfaction. With the unique contactless RFID smart ticketing service, Public Transport Operators around the globe benefit from easy implementation of contactless tickets in various public transport applications, thanks to RFID smart tickets’ compatibility with all major automatic fare collection systems, versatile ticket formats, ticket personalization capabilities and flexible overall service.
