1 SMART CARD ALLIANCE Annual Conference Changes in Fare Card Technology San Francisco October 2004 Xavier Bon ASK

2 AGENDA ASK, the «Contactless Vision» The Mass Transit Market, a huge potential A new proven business model Current and potential mass transit applications The Smart Ticket: a new media Beyond Transport AFC: new multi-applications The technology for a full contactless solution is ready. Challenges ahead 2

3 ASK VISION The Need for replacing paper and magnetic media when transactions need mobility Step 1 : Focus on Transport AFC systems with current obsolete ticketing technology and propose smart and cost effective solutions Step 2 : Propose new emerging RF applications with Payment and Identification for convenience and security 3

4 The Contactless Technology: Speed and security Transaction time 100 to 200msec Technological outbreak ID Transport 1 to 2 sec 1 to 3 sec GSM Payphone Contactless E-purse Payment Number of transactions /day

5 The need for a new technology Increase Transactions Speed Fast Decrease Maintenance costs Reliable Decrease Fraud Secure Increase Marketing Services Flexible architecture With priority to low cost To serve new markets To upgrade existing systems 5

6 A silver ink printed antenna on paper: the common component Dual interface cards Contactless cards Contactless paper tickets RFID smart labels/tags 6

7 Standards: The only path to inter-operability Contact mode : ISO /2/3/4 Contactless mode : ISO Type A or Type B 13,56MHZ Some standardization schemes in transport : APTA/ ITSO/ Calypso/ VDV EMV in Banking applications 7

8 Mass transit: a Huge Potential Bus, subways, commuter trains, taxis, etc 300 million cards/year for subscribers 15/25 billion paper tickets/year for occasional/regular users RF plastic cards - Contactless - Dual interface RF paper tickets 40 first metropolitan cities 130 million subscribers Ref. Railways in China: 1 billion tickets a year 8

9 A Proven Business Model Contactless smart card is the ideal media for mobility A full range of products addressing all users requirements (from occasional users to yearly subscribers with a combined media solution) High level of personalization (ID, photo, various fare schemes) Media with high quality and robustness Transaction cost insignificant Maintenance cost insignificant (15-20 % for magnetic solutions) Multi-application capabilities providing additional revenue opportunities for operators and additional benefits for customers 9

10 Top 10 current transport ISO applications in volume (millions) Today Potential Germany/ Rhein Ruhr (VRR) 3.6 Mcards 20Mcards France/ Paris, Lyon, 30 cities 4.5 Mcards 18Mcards Portugal/ Lisbon, Porto 1.5 Mcards 6Mcards 15.0 Mtickets 40Mtickets Italy/ Rome, Milan, Naples 1.0 Mcards 16Mcards Netherlands/ Translink 0.7 Mcards 12Mcards Scandinavia/ Oslo/ Stockholm 0.1 Mcards 12Mcards San Francisco 0.4 Mcards 2Mcards Atlanta/LA/WDC/Seattle/NY 0.6 Mcards 10Mcards South America/Brazil 0.1 Mcards 20Mcards 2.0 M tickets 70Mtickets Taipei/ Shanghaï-Guanzhou 0.8 Mcards 10Mcards 2.0 Mtickets 1billiontickets Ticket volume given by year/ Card volume given for 3 years 10

11 Examples of major AFC deployments Central Germany: Rhein-Ruhr VRR: Population: 20 millions Daily riders: bus, commuter train: 4 millions Mass Transit agencies: 45 Issued Dual Micro processor cards : 3.2 millions Potential for E-purse Inter operability between 45 operators 11

12 Examples (cont) Paris and Ile-de-France Population: 10 millions Issued dual contactless cards: 2.5 M Yearly passes 0.5 M Monthly passes 1.3 M Student passes 0.7 M Full inter operability between subway, bus, light train, commuter train ( and later, long distance train) 12

13 Examples (cont) Netherlands Trans Link System: 1 st country in the world to have a full contactless AFC system in their whole public transportation system Population:17 millions 5 majors operators with subway, bus, train, boat and tramway Daily riders: 12 millions 12.0 Million Mifare 4 K cards to be issued 15 million smart paper tickets per year 13

14 A new media: the smart paper ticket The smart paper ticket: a new smart media for occasional users, transfers, parking, tolls, tourists activities, sports events, museums, access control, passes, ID badges, etc Already widely used worldwide: 30 million tickets in service 14

15 ASK C.ticket Worldwide PSV Eindhoven Rotterdam Netherlands Brussels Belgium Lisbon Porto Portugal Naples Capri Firenze Italy Paris Marseille Monaco France St Petersburg Macedonia Guadalajara Mexico N J Transit USA Guaruja Belem Brazil 15 Tunisia China

16 Beyond Transport,contactless provides any mobility applications The contactless technology and specially the RF paper ticket solution gives the possibility of providing additional benefits to the riders: E purse for convenient purchases Identification and access control Loyalty applications Parking access Loyalty scheme Stadiums access, Etc... 16

17 Multi-application scheme with TanGo Combining contact mode with contactless mode, for fulfilling the various needs TanGo Platform MStripe EMV Debit card E purse Mass Transit Loyalty Toll Access control Contact Contactless MICROPROCESSOR (8bits) 17

18 Besides the media: the enabling components Card & SAM Terminals OEM Hardware Security Distribution Reloading Services Personalisation/Printing 18

19 Challenges ahead The technology for multi-applications is available, cost effective and secure in terms of transactions and environment. The high volume manufacturing capacity in contactless is already available with 50 million units capacity in 2004 and 200 million in Challenges : Participate to the new open contactless infrastructure needed for transport and banking Ready to support US market efficiently 19
