🚀 Congratulations to NEORide for welcoming its 35th member, the Chattanooga Area Regional Transportation Authority (CARTA)! This milestone expands NEORide's reach to nine states! The partnership between NEORide and Masabi has been instrumental in developing and delivering EZfare, the leading fare payment platform now used by 15 transit agencies across Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and West Virginia. Congratulations to NEORide and CARTA! We look forward to continuing our partnership in making public transit more affordable and accessible to all riders.

We’re thrilled to announce a significant milestone here at Masabi: we were recently awarded a $97 million contract extension by New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), spanning up to 12 years. Since the 2016 launch of MTA’s eTix mobile ticketing service, Masabi’s software has become critical to railroad fare collection operations. Today, 70 percent of MNR and LIRR’s revenue is enabled by mobile ticketing. We’re delighted to be supporting the MTA in enhancing the TrainTime app and completing OMNY delivery, while continuing to create experiences that MTA riders love. MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber stated, "The new approach is going to give users the sense of interoperability they expect while limiting MTA's contractor risk and saving millions of dollars." The MTA's trust in us to manage the future of fare payment on the railroads is a testament to our capabilities, and we are excited to see what the next decade brings!

🚀 In case you missed the exciting news from Masabi last week! 🚀 Masabi's partnership with Denver's RTD is continuing to make transit easier and more convenient for everyone living in or visiting Denver. Our Justride platform has been powering RTD's fare system since 2017, delivering multiple world-firsts, including being the first city worldwide to enable public transit ticket purchases through Uber. Since then, Masabi and RTD have implemented Account-Based Ticketing with fare capping and seamless integration with the Transit app, now including Colorado's regional Bustang service. This extended partnership means continued innovation in making public transit more accessible and convenient. Riders can simply tap a card or scan an app to board, while benefiting from automated fare capping for the best prices. We look forward to continuing this journey with RTD and enhancing the travel experience for all riders. 🌍 Get more details about our renewed partnership with RTD in the comments section!

🚀 We are still buzzing with energy from the amazing experience at last week’s Transport Ticketing North America event! It was incredible to connect with so many partners and customers. A special highlight was presenting alongside RTD about our shared journey: from mobile ticketing in 2017 to Account-Based Ticketing in 2022 and beyond. Huge shoutout to our colleague Ashleigh Primm for her fantastic presentation with RTD, and to Steve Young for his insightful contributions to the panel on Account-Based Ticketing, showing how it can elevate the passenger experience without losing the features everyone relies on. Masabi was in full force with our stellar team: Lindsay Richardson, Tonya Anderson, Nancy Brooks, Brooke Duffy, Brandon Leonhard, Josh Nicklin, and Joe Eldridge. We can’t wait to see what next year’s event holds and look forward to participating again. Here’s to more innovation and collaboration! 💪✨ #TTNAM24

🚀 We’re thrilled to announce the extension of our partnership with RTD, continuing to make transit easier and more convenient for everyone living in or visiting Denver. 🚍🚆 Since 2017, RTD and Masabi have collaborated in a multi-award-winning partnership, delivering several fare payment-firsts. And with the launch of RTD’s MyRide Account-Based Ticketing system powered by Masabi, customers can simply tap MyRide smart cards or scan the MyRide app when boarding buses or at rail stations. Fare capping ensures customers pay the lowest fares at daily and monthly limits, allowing everyone the savings of period passes without needing to purchase them upfront. With this extension, Masabi will continue to provide RTD with its cutting-edge end-to-end fare payment platform. Additionally, this extension marks another milestone in our successful partnership, allowing us to further our work together and continue to innovate in the public transit space.
