Traveling on Punjab’s electric buses has become easier and more convenient with the launch of a brand-new QR-based payment system. The Punjab Masstransit Authority has introduced this digital method to help passengers travel without keeping a physical card. With this new option, people can simply scan a QR code on their phone, making bus travel faster and smoother.
eTransit Punjab App Makes Registration Simple
This new digital payment feature is available through the eTransit Punjab mobile application. The app can be downloaded easily on any Android device. After installing it, users only need to register using their mobile number. Once registration is complete, passengers receive access to a built-in digital wallet inside the app. This wallet replaces the need for a physical bus card and allows users to store balance directly on their phone.
How to Generate the Secure QR Code
After the wallet is recharged, using the QR system becomes very easy. Passengers simply need to turn on the QR option inside the app. Once activated, the app creates a dynamic and secure QR code that changes every time it is used. This protects the user and ensures that the code cannot be misused by anyone else. The system keeps all transactions safe and reliable.
Cashless Boarding Through POS Machines
When boarding an EV bus, passengers only have to display their QR code to the POS (Point-of-Sale) machine installed inside the bus. The machine scans the code instantly and deducts the fare from the digital wallet. This process is much quicker than paying in cash or tapping a physical card. It saves time, reduces long lines, and makes the journey more comfortable.
A Cleaner and More Modern Travel Experience
This QR-based payment method brings many benefits. Because it is completely contactless, it provides a cleaner and more hygienic travel experience. Passengers no longer have to carry cash or worry about losing their travel card. The system also helps buses stay on schedule by speeding up the boarding process, especially during rush hours.
A Smart Step Toward Modern Public Transport
With this digital upgrade, Punjab is taking a big step toward modern and smart public transportation. Electric buses already support an eco-friendly environment, and now the new QR payment system makes them even more convenient and user-friendly. Passengers can enjoy a smooth, safe, and stress-free travel experience with this advanced feature.
