The Bharat Yatra Card provides passengers with a direct travel solution which connects three types of transportation systems through a single card.
The new system eliminates the need for travelers to buy multiple tickets when using different public transportation systems. The system uses tap-and-go technology which enables users to complete their journeys more efficiently while reducing their time spent at ticket counters.
Pine Labs created the Bharat Yatra Card as a RuPay-based Common Mobility Card. The card enables contactless payments at metro stations and RTC services and railway terminals in all participating cities. The system charges users the appropriate fare through an automatic deduction from their card balance after they scan their card.
