Ipswich Buses chooses Ticketer

After an extensive evaluation of ticketing systems available in the bus industry Ipswich Buses has made the decision to work with Ticketer in developing their web based ticketing system for its fleet of 71 vehicles in Ipswich.

Managing Director Malcolm Robson of Ipswich Buses states:

“We are looking forward to developing what is potentially a very exciting new ticketing system for our Company. This will give us the flexibility to offer shorter term ticketing marketing solutions, whilst also allowing us to take full advantage of the latest technologies to enable our users to travel using mobile phone technology and provide Real Time Information for our services via ticketing systems and our website.

After an examination of the various ticketing systems available we were extremely impressed with the upfront honest approach displayed by the Ticketer staff in promoting their product. The recent introduction of the ticketing system to Reading Transport gave us the comfort to know that we are entering into an agreement which will deliver what it promised at costs we have been quoted”.

John Clarfelt, Managing Director of Ticketer, says:

“We are absolutely delighted that Ipswich Buses, another operator of considerable repute, has chosen to implement a Ticketer solution. Ipswich Buses have really put us through our paces, and we are now looking forward to delivering another interoperable ITSO Commercial and Concessionary card scheme in a challenging timescale, and to following this up with the introduction of a host of exciting new functionality which we have in development.”

The new ticketing system is aimed for implementation on the Ipswich Buses fleet by the end of August 2011.
