Train users can pay with mobiles

Irish company MobileAware have announced today that French national railway company, SNCF, has extended its use of MobileAware technology to launch a new mobile ticketing service, known as Tikefone. Currently available to passengers attending summer cultural events in Brittany, Tikefone enables passengers to complete the entire ticket-purchase transaction using their mobile device. The service, which is accessible on any browser-enabled mobile device, was developed and implemented within six months and is scheduled to roll out to other regions in France, beginning in September. Tikefone is SNCF’s second mobile service using MobileAware technology – the award-winning mobile customer self-service solution, Infogare, has provided real-time train schedules to SNCF passengers throughout France since October 2005.
