What we do

Discover Our Expertise and Smart Solutiona

Smartran offers clients a broad range of professional expertise which can be applied to all stages of a project's life-cycle. We are currently assisting clients in the areas of transport ticketing, Local Authority resident smart cards, higher education, incentive schemes, contactless payment applications and improved delivery of existing services. We typically undertake assignments which make it easier for residents and customers to access our clients' services.

​

Smart Solutions

We examine what organisations are doing to stay relevant and competitive in this fast-paced world, and which ones are doing it best. We then strategise using smart tools and global resources in order to understand the implications of every choice our clients can make. Based on our unique experience and business relationships, we bring you exciting and effective solutions for transport ticketing, multi-application smart card schemes and related access control, retailing, cash collection payment, e-commerce and settlement requirements. 

Smart Transport

Smartran brings together a wealth of experience with smart card technology, contactless EMV, NFC mobile applications and transport ticketing methods. We have led projects to deliver customer friendly ticketing propositions and improved user experience including vending machines, validators and mobile apps. We have provided ITSO technical consultancy support services to Transport Authorities and Operators to implement smart ticketing.  

Most recently we have been managing the implementation and testing of innovative cloud services which relies on contactless payment cards for touch on/touch off to speed up customer boarding and offer a best price proposition. 

Pay Contactless

Building on our experience designing and implementing smart contactless ticketing in transport, Smartran is proud to launch Pay-C as the new brand for our consultancy and project managements services for “pay contactless” solutions in transport.

​

Under the Pay-C brand we offer our expertise in:

• Proposition definition and development

• EMV payment service integration and certification

• Setup and operation of trials

• Transition and rollout

• Project and Programme Management

Eco Rewards

Through our work with Local Authorities, voluntary sector, transport authorities and leisure service providers, we have identified a common need for sustainable effective long term incentives which are valued by the recipients. There are over 2000 well known national online brands supporting these schemes by funding cash back rewards, discounts and special offers for members.

​

Eco Rewards offers rewards and incentives for schools, businesses and communities to encourage residents and students to choose greener travel options and reduce their carbon footprint. Collectively, participants could save £100ks per annum on fuel costs and reduce CO2 emissions by 1000s tonnes.

​

Local Authorities

Both central government initiatives (e.g. Concessionary Transport) and local requirements for access to services are driving local government to implement schemes which employ smart card technology. Whether you have an existing project underway, are planning an extension to an existing scheme or are considering how to tackle a new initiative, Smartran is uniquely placed to assist.

​

We can respond to a wide range of smart card related projects from our pool of subject experts and build an integrated project team with the right skills mix for a long term assignment. 

Smart Education

Smartran has extensive experience designing and implementing card schemes for schools, colleges and Universities. We have extended resident card schemes to support multiple applications in secondary schools and helped Universities rollout multi-purpose cards for their staff and students.

We have experience working with many of the key providers of systems and can help you deliver complex schemes to schedule and budget. We have detailed knowledge of payment methods, building access control, print/copy services, library access, attendance monitoring and other uses of smartcards.
