Contactless payment makes for smooth journeys in Stockholm

For passenger security, SL does not see debit card numbers or card accounts but uses a technology where the correct card number is exchanged for a random number. This means that SL cannot see which person the payment card is linked to.

The new service builds on the successful mass deployment of Access IS’s readers and validators for SL’s Access Card ticketing scheme. Plans are in place to migrate the Access Card to a new SL transit closed-loop card to enable a single point of presentation for all tickets and payments.

All Access-IS validators and readers are non-proprietary, open architecture units, which enables the transport operator to use any software backend system they desire.  

Cliff Hunter, Head of Sales for Access-IS, says: “We champion software agnostic transit products to give operators flexibility in how they implement their mobile ticketing and payment schemes.”
