Kunming bus support QR code payment in 2019

According to the Kunming Bus Group news, in the first half of this year, Kunming Bus will open WeChat or Alipay scan code ride business. At that time, the public does not need to download any apps, use WeChat or Alipay to scan the code directly to take the bus.

According to the staff of the Kunming Bus Group, the current payment method for the bus in Kunming is not only for cash and bus card, but also for smart phone scanning. However, you must download and install the app before using the smart phone to scan the code. The Kunming City Express Smart Card reader, which will be installed on the bus, contains 4G communication chip, which adopts real-time networking mode. In addition to meeting the payment of “Spring City e-Road” App, passengers can also use Internet payment methods such as WeChat and Alipay to pay the fare.

Recently, the reporter saw on the bus No. 61, No. 62, No. 175 and other buses that some of the buses have completed the installation of the smart card machine of Kunming City. Compared with the original card reader machine, the newly installed Kunming City Pass smart card machine has a card swipe area on the top for passengers to swipe the card; the middle is an electronic screen display area, which can visually display the passenger payment amount; the bottom is the scan code camera. At present, the above-mentioned line bus has only completed the installation of the Kunming City Pass smart card swipe machine, and has not yet opened the WeChat or Alipay scan code ride function.

The staff said that increasing the multi-fee model will greatly facilitate the local citizens to take the bus, and will also enhance the convenience of foreign passengers taking the Kunming bus. In addition, Kunming Bus will also rely on the “Spring City e Road” QR code travel payment platform that has been opened for operation. It plans to launch a “day ticket, monthly ticket” ride service through the implementation of electronic “virtual card”.
