Cubic provides transit operators with mobile capabilities supporting retail networks, ticket inspection and traveler facing experiences.

Each solution is flexible to support evolving payment technologies while allowing transportation operators to choose from a mix of products and services that reduce operational costs.
• Cubic Transport Management Platform: Integrated transport and traffic management are critical elements of the multimodal transportation networks of the future – providing individual operators the ability to more effectively manage and push out information to their travelers about their systems.

It can use the built-in camera for document validation and share information with passengers to help them select the right ticket and journey options. It also enables station staff to be deployed around stations, keeping human contact in public transit in a more efficient and effective way and improving staff visibility at platforms.
