Abstract

Payment systems for transportation services come in several forms. In this chapter we cover some of the common payment systems technologies and how they can be integrated into a single platform. We discuss payment technologies such as smart-phone applications, electronic toll collection and radio frequency ID (RFID) transponders and readers for payment on managed lanes, pay-as-you-go technologies, and electronic card payment technologies for mass transit among others.

We discuss how in some payment implementations all modes of transportation available in the urban region are integrated into one central payment platform which allows commuters to pay for tolls, mass transit, shared rides (Uber, Lyft), and parking on a single interface. This integrated online platform is ideal for blockchain/cryptocurrency technology payments, and several smart cities have developed this functionality for their smartphone app.
