Conduent Transportation receives Visa Ready for Transit certification for its ATLAS® Ops fare collection system

Conduent Transportation’s ATLAS® Ops fare collection system has achieved Visa Ready for Transit certification.

Conduent's ATLAS Open Media back-office module and its VPE 430 smartcard ticket validator device have been certified by the international Visa Ready for Transit program, which recognizes ready-to-deploy solutions that simplify payments for public transportation services and reduce the need for traditional tickets or smartcards. The certification provides transit agencies with the confidence that technology partners, such as Conduent Transportation, offer solutions and capabilities to simplify the process of identifying the right partner and expertise, streamline testing and implementation and meet Visa's standards for security.

Conduent's ATLAS Ops solution modernizes a transit network's fare collection by enabling a variety of transit ticketing payment methods, including contactless cards, EMV contactless bank cards, digital wallets, NFC and QR code.

"Transit agencies looking to implement modern fare collection systems can be confident knowing that our ATLAS Ops solution has met Visa's high standard for Visa Ready for Transit certification," said Jean-Charles Zaia, general manager, Public Transit at Conduent Transportation. "By partnering with Conduent, transit systems can quickly deploy a solution that has been recognized for its quality and delivers streamlined collections, reduces operational costs, helps riders navigate their systems more efficiently and improves the overall travel experience."
