National Railway Digitalization

By utilizing eFinance’s comprehensive integrated smart solutions services, we were able to introduce electronic gateways at four of Egypt’s largest railway stations and successfully develop an online ticketing platform where passengers can book and pay for their tickets seamlessly.

eFinance introduced electronic gateways automating entry at Egypt’s four largest railway stations: Cairo, Giza, Alexandria, and Sidi Gaber. Also introducing the most advanced AFC technologies for digitizing station entries, exits, and pathways, with solutions developed to optimize traffic into and out of stations.  eFinance additionally enabled the use of open-loop payment cards for ticketing transactions and deployed smart gates capable of accepting contactless cards and QR codes. 

Meanwhile, we developed an online ticketing service and a mobile application for ticket reservations. By year-end 2021, we installed 252 smart gates and 50 digital ticketing platforms across Egypt primary railway stations, delivered 1,200 product and control module (PCM) devices for ticket authentication, and provided value-added services ranging from 24/7 operational support to analytics solutions and reporting for decision-making support.
