Mobility is constantly evolving. This is how Telepass expands to travel and the city experience (in time for the summer holidays)

News at Telepass.

Telepass, which has recently become the subject of a case study by the Harvard Business School (“ Telepass: From Tolling to Mobility Platform ”) due to its transformation process from electronic toll collection to an integrated mobility ecosystem thanks to the development of data-driven technological services and through a single app, it continues its evolution by opening up to the world of travel and the city experience. And the now imminent summer holidays will allow users to notice it.

SUMMER HOLIDAYS? YOU BOOK FROM THE TELEPASS APP

Telepass and the tech travel agency BizAway have signed an agreement which provides for the integration of the new "Flights" service into the Telepass mobility ecosystem. In this way, directly from the proprietary App it is possible to book and pay for flights to many destinations in the world and with the main airlines without the customer having to directly access other sites or eCommerce portals.

The Telepass integrated mobility ecosystem expands further to the Travel world, completing the offer that already includes payment services for booking travel by train, bus and ferry, as well as shared mobility in the city (scooters, electric bikes and scooters; public transport, taxis) and payment services connected to the car, such as electric charging and refuelling.

Thanks to the partnership with BizAway, Telepass customers can now book and manage air travel without geographical limits with a click. To use the service, simply be a Telepass Plus customer, access the Telepass mobile application – downloadable on Android and iOS smartphones – and select the "Flights" service icon. In Telepass style, the cost of the ticket will then be charged to the current account, eliminating the need to use credit cards.

After the purchase, thanks to the flows provided by BizAway, the customer receives a booking confirmation email with all the details necessary for the flight (for example check-in), can view the booking in the appropriate section of the App up to the time of trip and can automatically send service requests.

If Venice is among the destinations of your next summer holidays, from the partnership with the Venetian VeLa, a company of the AVM Group and the first city tourist portal, it becomes possible to access public transport services and the cultural and tourist offer of the city through a single tool.
