Jakarta commuter network adopts innovative contactless ticketing

Sony is to supply Jakarta’s mass transit operator KA Commuter Jabodetabek with a new contactless ticketing system.

The solution will allow passengers to board trains using contactless card tickets,  FeliCa embedded wristbands and NFC-enabled mobile phones across the operator’s 182-kilometre network.

Sony’s card and wristband solution will be implemented from this month, with the mobile service being added later this year.
