The Transit trip-planning app has introduced a feature that tells users whether the transit agency they’re looking to ride accepts open-loop payments.
The first-of-its-kind feature kicked off with a list of more than 50 transit authorities, operators and groups globally in cities where the Transit app is present. That includes in North America, Transit’s homebase; as well as Europe and Australia and New Zealand. (See table with list provided to Mobility Payments)
To be sure, the list represents a significant undercount of the transit agencies that accept open loop globally, even among the 800-plus cities where the Transit app operates. But Transit says the list is a good start.
