Our take

Masabi is developing a SaaS-based fare collection and ticketing platform that allows commuters to buy and present tickets for public transport on their mobile phones or by tapping a bank card. Replacing ticket booths, vending machines and on-board points of sale, Masabi presents a convenient and modern alternative for public transport providers without the hefty set-up fees of an in-house solution.

Competition has recently been heating up in the SaaS for mobility services sector, and Masabi now faces competition from the likes of Transloc, Passport and SilverRail Technologies. However, Masabi stands out with the flexibility of its platform and its ease of implementation (just over two weeks in the case of Nikko Kotsu Bus in Japan, compared to the months it can take for competing solutions).

Masabi now has deployments with over 150 transit agencies in 9 countries, with millions of passengers using its fare and ticketing system each year. It is continuing to expand its customer base, most recently deploying its platform with Eau Claire Transit and the Las Vegas Regional Transportation Commission. As more transit companies switch from legacy systems to modern ticketing solutions, Masabi is well poised for future success.
