Transportation / Smart Cards
Transportation smart cards underpin every modern transit system — whether a citywide metro pass, a campus bus card, a hospital shuttle badge or a paid-parking credential. THINKED manufactures contactless fare cards built for the high-cycle, high-durability demands of daily transit use.
Our transit cards use MIFARE DESFire EV3, CIPURSE or Calypso-compatible chips depending on your fare collection platform, and we support both reloadable cards and disposable single-ride tickets printed on thermal-card stock. Every card is embedded with an anti-collision antenna that reads fast at the gate, even when held in a wallet with other cards.
For transit authorities and transport operators, we offer personalization bureaus that encode each card with its initial balance, serial number and travel-log file, then ship them pre-sorted by station or route. We can also produce branded concession cards for seniors, students and staff with different visual finishes so they are immediately recognizable.
All cards meet ISO 7810 physical standards and are tested against your specific gate hardware before shipment.
