NOW RECRUITING VOLUNTEER PILOT TESTERS FOR NEW WAVE MOBILE APP

Wave is RIPTA’s new smart fare collection system, which will be available as a smart card and mobile app. RIPTA is currently looking for pilot testers who can download, use the mobile app and provide feedback during the pilot testing phase. Pilot testers will be required to load value onto the mobile app using a credit/debit card online. The feedback RIPTA receives during this pilot testing phase is critical to a successful launch.

The Wave mobile app can be reloaded with additional value and reused indefinitely. Using Wave is fast and easy. You’ll simply scan the Wave mobile app on board any RIPTA bus to pay your fare.

Are you ready to ride the Wave?

Email marketing@ripta.com today with the following information:

Which routes do you ride?
How do you currently pay for your bus fare (Cash, Flash Pass app, etc.)?
What type of cell phone do you have?
