All-in-One Transportation Management System
Our Ridership Solution

How it works

Scan on

When a student attempts to get on a bus, they present their card to the RFID reader installed on the bus.

Authorize

The SMART tag tablet confirms if the student is boarding the right bus.

Unload

When the student attempts to get off at a stop, they scan their card ensuring it’s the right stop.

Data flow

Information gathered by the driver tablets are shared in real-time using secured cloud technology.
