Transit Ticketing & Fare Collection MENA 2025
As public transport networks continue to expand across cities in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), modernizing fare collection systems has become a top priority. With nearly 50% of trips still relying on cash payments, the region faces growing challenges in efficiency, revenue management, and user experience.

This two-day conference will bring together public transport authorities, operators, fintech leaders, system integrators, and technology providers to explore the next generation of mobility solutions.
A key event to discover innovations, understand deployment strategies, and build long-term partnerships in a rapidly evolving sector.
What to expect:
– Contactless and open-loop payment systems
– Multimodal integration with ride-sharing, taxis, and micro-mobility
– Real-world case studies from the MENA region
– Interoperability of fare collection systems
– AI, data analytics, and cybersecurity in transport payments
– Integrated EV charging and mobility payments
– UAE’s goal of becoming a cashless economy by 2030
