Unveiling The Agbero: The Bespoke Mobile Ticketing Solution For Public Transport

Ruiti Agbero Limited, the Fare Payments as a service provider has introduced the Agbero App. It is available for download from the Google Playstore.  The Agbero App is a city wide fare payments Service.

 In a low income economy as we have in Nigeria, the ‘Agbero’ App is a positive response to the yearnings of the riders to have a fare system commensurate with their ability to pay.

Ridership and Revenue

  • The philosophy behind it is simple: a reduced fare leads to increase in ridership and profitability. And conversely, increased fares will lead to low revenue intake for the transport operators as the ridership population decreases.
  • Prospects for increased capacity

The Agbero App will pave the way for organized Private Sector (OPS) – led public transport operations in Nigeria because the financial intermediaries are thereby assured of guaranteed return on Investment (ROI).

  • To travel for a whole day, the rider will buy a ticket with the mobile phone. And ride on the boats/ferries/buses operators partnering with the Agbero App.

The Transaction Dynamics

The Agbero which is a fare payment as A – Service – App enables transport operators to use a platform that gives them fare collection on a platter. They simply log on and they are in service.

It is designed to complement their existing ticketing arrangements.

The Agbero pays them as the riders use their services. 

And the commuter pay once.

The plan is simple; riders pay with their phone and receive a ticket, which enables them to ride, on a One – Day – Travel, round the city.
