News came from the Ningbo branch of China UnionPay that from April 26 on, the "quick-pass payment with mobile phones" will be available on the 2576 buses of the 228 public traffic lines in the urban area. That is, when taking a bus, the citizens can pay the fee very conveniently with their mobile phones or their Unionpay cards with quick-pass service.

Reportedly, any mobile phone with the quick-pass function or any UnionPay card with the "quick pass" sign can be used to pay the fee when pressed to the induction area of the POS device on the buses.

According to experts from China Unionpay, the bus system of the urban area of Ningbo has adopted the "double passage" model with both online and offline data authentication (ODA), to meet the demands of the large passenger flow and for quick passage. When the network environment of the buses is not so stable, the ODA model will be adopted to guarantee the smooth ride of passengers. According to a test on a pilot bus, the payment by the mobile phone can be completed within half a second.

As is reported, the service will be used by all the public traffic lines of the urban area by the end of June this year
