CHENNAI (Metro Rail News): Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) proudly announces the integration of two innovative payment modes for parking facilities and introduction of Single QR Family Tickets, revolutionising the commuting experience for metro users.
Introduction of Making Parking payment through Singara Chennai Card (NCMC) & Store Value Pass (SVP) QR in CMRL Mobile App:
CMRL takes a monumental step forward by introducing the Singara Chennai Card (National Common Mobility Card by SBI) and Store Value Pass (SVP) QR through the CMRL Mobile App as additional payment options for its parking facilities. Now, passengers can conveniently pay their parking charges using the Singara Chennai Card and Store Value Pass (SVP) QR available in the CMRL Mobile App.
This pioneering initiative positions CMRL as the first metro system in the country to implement parking payment through the National Common Mobility Card, a testament to CMRL’s commitment to enhancing customer experience. Developed in-house in technical collaboration with the State Bank of India (SBI) & Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (CDAC), this solution signifies CMRL’s dedication to innovation and customer-centric service.
Single QR family Tickets for Metro Commuters:
To streamline the ticketing process and cater to passengers travelling together, CMRL has introduced Single QR Family Tickets. Instead of issuing individual QR tickets for each passenger, CMRL will now issue one QR ticket for multiple passengers. This convenient solution, developed in collaboration with M/s Ford Mobility, allows groups of up to 5 passengers to travel seamlessly through the metro gates, simplifying ticketing and enhancing passenger convenience.
