I don't see how.Every user has an account, and money flows to where the user uses the pass.Because each agency has both "unlimited ride" and "pay per ride" payment systems, and some agencies give discounts for buying PPR in bulk and others don't. They have to agree on who is going to get what money when purchases are made from different agency's machines and used on different agency's vehicles, and how the payment system will or will not allow multiple unlimited ride passes of different types from different systems to be loaded up and active at once. And the agencies need to see if they can agree on mega ride passes that allow rides on multiple agency's vehicles. These are all conversations that have not begun, AFAIK. |
