An Android-based Smart Bus Pass application

Abstract

The current manual process of registering and renewing bus passes is problematic for passengers, but a real-time effort called PTC Registration and Renewal will help. In addition to extending the validity duration, it sends passengers regular SMS warnings before their validity period expires. Payment for registration or renewal can be made online using a credit card. Members of the administrative team can also log in to the app and use it to communicate with passengers in a certain way. Rather than waiting in line at counters for hours, riders may simply renew their bus cards online using this convenient application. At the outset, travellers need to sign up for the app by providing their name, address, phone number, and any other necessary information. Passengers are required to enter a mobile number and passcode in order to log in after their details have been verified. The next step is for riders to choose their route and purchase their bus ticket. Credit cards and other wire transfer options are also available for renewal. Traveling passengers can pay via a QR code that is displayed next to the bus driver. The smartphone app is the sole means of implementing this system.
