Bangkok taps Vix ERG for micropayments solution

Monday, August 16, 2010

Bangkok Smartcard System (BSS) has contracted Australia’s Vix ERG to supply its MASS clearing house solution for micropayments as part of the company’s greater move to direct Bangkok towards a cashless society.

The system will support a payments solution for the Bangkok Mass Transit System Company Limited (BTSC) and Bangkok Metro Company Limited (BMCL) transit systems. Over time the system will be extended to provide support for other transit modes and to support micropayments in Bangkok, said Nelson Leung, Executive Director of BSS.


The clearing house solution has been implemented in 11 cities in five countries around the world, most notably in Beijing, China where the system currently processes over 9 million transactions per day. [end]
