Be-Cash equips the TRAVYS bus network

Rapid implementation in a difficult context.

Major player in the mobility sector in the North of Vaud and Vallée de Joux, TRAVYS SA is a public transport company, operating a wide road and rail network. Wishing to continue to offer its customers a safe and high-quality service, despite the health crisis, the company has taken important measures within a short amount of time. In order to reduce the risks associated with the use of cash and to offer a secure means of payment, TRAVYS logically turned to the installation of payment terminals on board of its buses.

“The Be-Cash solution is very advantageous to purchase. The price of the devices is up to 10 times cheaper than other solutions. In addition, there is no need for a mobile phone subscription for the transmission of the data, as the SIM card is included with the purchase”.

Pierre-Yves Roberti, Sales & Distribution Manager

Contacted in mid-August, and within few days, Be-Cash delivered 90 myPOS Combo payment terminals. These terminals, easy to use and vibration-resistant, proved to be perfectly adapted to the situation and at an unbeatable price. Furthermore, it was crucial that TRAVYS kept full control over the data and programming of their devices, which is guaranteed on a daily basis by the access to a fully secure and configurable interface.

“The responsiveness of Be-Cash and the solutions found in the very short time were very much appreciated”.

Michaël Kottelat, Deputy Head of Finance Department

Thanks to this, the public transport company was able to remove cash payments in record time. The TRAVYS bus network thus becomes one of the first services of this type in Switzerland, to be equipped with cashless payment in their vehicles. Transport tickets can now be paid contactless with a credit card, debit card, as well as with a watch or a connected mobile phone (Apple Pay or Google Pay technology).
