 Automated Fare Collection Market Growth & Trends

This is expected to create robust opportunities for players in the automated fare collection industry. These systems are primarily used in high transit areas such as public transport ports, large commercial workplaces, and government buildings. The growing traffic activity worldwide continues to force various governments to implement innovative systems for public transportation service management. This is accelerating the adoption of the automated fare collection system in various countries such as the U.K., India, Japan, and China as these governments are consistently investing in transport infrastructure development, supporting the AFC industry growth.

For instance, in January 2019, Aurionpro Solutions implemented the automated fare collection systems for the Noida Metro project in partnership with the State Bank of India, and the Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC). The rising need for easy to use and automated fare-collection systems to maintain high-quality standards for customer service is driving the growth of the automated fare collection industry. The growing construction of mass rapid transportation systems such as metros, light rails, and highways has resulted in higher passenger volumes. The changing business scenario is generating the need for a smart automatic fare collection system.

These automatic fare collection systems not only provide a path toward easier operations but also minimize the risks and costs associated with managing cash, smooth traffic flow, and tracking data and records. These factors are expected to drive the demand in the AFC industry during the forecast period. Due to the growing technological advancement and higher adoption of online payment preferences, people need a variety of options such as cash, card, and e-wallets while in transit. Hence, flexibility remains an attractive feature to customers. Furthermore, AFC solutions provide a safe and reliable payment option that ensures data protection based on industry-standard encryption technology. Hence, these factors are expected to fuel the growth of the automated fare collection industry during the forecast period.
