Buy Your Ticket Anytime, Anywhere, with BreezePass, the New Mobile Ticketing App for Palmetto Breeze and The Breeze Trolley
Palmetto Breeze launched a new mobile ticketing application for riders. The new app, BreezePass, is available for The Breeze, as well as bus services Palmetto Breeze. The app will offer an upgrade to current ticketing options by allowing riders to purchase and display tickets on their Android or Apple smartphones anytime, anywhere.
Passengers using BreezePass can pay for tickets using a credit or debit card, or via digital payment services such as Masterpass and Apple Pay. Tickets are displayed on-screen as a digital watermark and contain a dynamic and encrypted barcode. Following purchase, passengers activate tickets and then show them to a driver when boarding. Mobile fares include one-way, round-trip, seven-day and 30-day passes. Once purchased, tickets are available offline so riders are never left without their ticket.
“The new mobile ticketing option will allow our riders to access our services quicker and easier than ever before,” said Mary Lou Franzoni, executive director of the Lowcountry Regional Transportation Authority, operators of Palmetto Breeze and The Breeze Trolley. “Getting to and around Hilton Head has never been easier thanks to the new BreezePass and our recently launched Breeze Trolley service.”
Palmetto Breeze is using the market leading Justride Platform from Masabi. As part of the deployment, Justride will be using Mastercard Payment Gateway Services to enable simple, safe and secure in-app digital payments.
“At Masabi, we’ve always strived to make public transit ticketing and payments as quick and simple as possible for riders,” said Brian Zanghi, CEO of Masabi. “We’re excited to bring our ticketing solutions to Palmetto Breeze services and the newly opened Breeze Trolley.”
