The contract includes the company’s compact ARC3300T5 smart card terminals for reloading Mifare DESFire travel cards via the new online national order database. To expand current distribution channels and increasing Internet sales, Ruter will be launching a complete online sales solution where travellers can top up the e-purse balance and add a travel product to their travel card via a web shop. When a travel card is presented to an Arcontia terminal, the order will be retrieved, activating the top-up to the card immediately.
ARC3300T5, an interactive e-ticketing terminal that offers fast and convenient ticket validation and smart card reload, will be connected online with the national order database, securing fast and dependable order retrieval directly from the database to the card. For increased flexibility and accessibility, the terminals will be placed throughout the city of Oslo and Akershus County, encouraging the use of smart cards in public transport.
