We designed the VAL100 bus ticket validator to integrate with Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) systems seamlessly. This versatile device ensures efficient and reliable ticket validation and reading of contactless payments.

VAL100 features a proven multimedia ticket reader combined with an open architecture Linux computer, creating a robust mobile ticket validation solution when paired with third-party software. Whether for buses, trams or other public transit modes, VAL100 delivers consistent performance across all applications.

HID's VAL100 has been a valuable asset to Cubic's Umo mobility solution. Its capability to securely validate fare payment for multiple payment options has been instrumental in ensuring the swift and accurate deployment of our platform to transit agencies across North America. Thanks to our collaboration, we've been able to deliver a seamless mobility experience to the communities and agencies we serve. It's been a great partnership!

The multimedia ticket validator forms part of HID's ticket reader portfolio for mass transit. The device combines barcode and NFC/RFID reading functionality to provide a single point of presentation for tickets and travel passes – whether presented on a paper ticket, smartcard or mobile phone.

The VAL100, equipped with the HID TripTick™ 220 module, offers:

• EMV Level 2 certification for contactless payments
• PCI and SRED compliance for contactless payments using major payment processors (VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, JCB, and Discover)

VAL100 has also obtained the ITxPT approval label, meaning the unit easily integrates with on-board devices and vehicle computers to help create a plug-and-play AFC environment. The open architecture design of the VAL100 enables it to integrate with any third party software.

For platform and station validation, consider our sister product, the VAL150. Designed specifically for outdoor installations, the VAL150 features the same advanced technology as the VAL100, ensuring consistent ticket validation across your transit network. Additionally, our range of TripTick™ OEM devices offers the same ticket reading capabilities for seamless integration into ticket gates, machines and turnstiles.

The HID VAL100 ticket validator enables Token Transit to provide the most comprehensive fare payment platform, offering unmatched flexibility for riders, operational ease for transit operators and invaluable data insights for agencies striving to enhance customer experience and boost ridership.
