The 10 years development program, succeeded in creating the smartcard contactless technology adapted to the public transportation uses.
Some functional choices have been taken into account to answer the transit operators' needs:
 Contactless technology
Fast, safe transaction (decentralised security)
Communication within the transaction time
Flexible transport application to build system step-by-step
Targeted products to address all users and new services
Upgradable and respect for current standards
Microprocessor, contact and contactless interface or contactless interface only
In accordance to ISO 14443, ISO 7816-1, 2, 3, 4 and CEN 1545 Standards
The technology was made accessible to all manufacturers on a fair and non-discriminatory basis, to ensure:
The birth of this technology, suited to the urban public transport needs
A full products compatibility
A fair market competition
