Interoperable smart ticketing systems supplier Rambus 6366 Ecebs is to partner with 2050 Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) in Scotland in a pilot program for the newly announced host card emulation (HCE) ticketing solution, which will be delivered by Nevis Technologies, the joint venture company formed between 2050 Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT), Scotland’s regional transport partnership and Rambus Ecebs.

Roll-out for the first HCE ticketing solution is planned during 2017. The program uses a comprehensive mobile ticketing product suite leveraging HCE technology to securely load virtual smart cards onto smart phones. The solution can be implemented using existing smart infrastructure and enables transport operators to easily and securely transition from physical to virtual smart cards.

Rambus Ecebs will provide SPT with the HCE ticket wallet service, which securely provisions and manages a virtual smart card to store tickets on the phone, and a configurable HCE ticketing app, which provides consumers with an interface to purchase, fulfil and manage tickets. For transport operators, the Ticketing App helps collect valuable traveller data and analytics to optimise ticket offers, pricing, staffing and routes.
