The deputy of Transportation and Traffic of Qom Municipality says the entire taxi fleet will be equipped with electronic payment devices soon.
Massoud Tabibi made the remarks today Monday in the 27th official and public session of the Islamic City Council of Qom.
Referring to the measures taken in the field of providing electronic payments in urban public transport, he stressed the necessity of the implementation of electronic payment in the bus fleet.
Elaborating on the terms of payment in the taxi fleet, Tabibi noted that unfortunately, the use of electronic payments is now close to zero in the taxi fleet, and electronic payment cards and codes are rarely used in some places.
The Deputy of Transportation and Traffic of Qom Municipality pointed out that a pos machine will be installed in all taxis in the upcoming year.
We hope to provide this opportunity to citizens by the first half of 1401, and a smart payment card will also be issued to the freight fleet.
