Transport and mobility technology provider Flowbird has been named the winner of the EuMo Expo Innovation Award for its Open Payments expertise.

The company received the accolade during the recent European mobility exhibition, held digitally, for its success in enabling passengers to access and pay for multimodal travel using contactless bank cards and smartphones.

“We are delighted to have won this prestigious award,” said Francois Mottet, Head of Product Management and Strategy at Flowbird Transport Intelligence.

“For passengers, our Open Payments systems mean easier, faster and more streamlined access to transport services, while operators benefit from a more efficient fare collection and ticketing process, with lower risk of non-payment.”
