JakLingko Program Wins Highly Commended Smart Ticketing Programme AwardHe explained that the company introduced payment system digitization services on public transportation at this international scale event. Visitors got information on how to use the JakLingko application, which makes it easy to transfer commuters between modes with just one ticket purchase.
His party was also conducting a travel simulation by applying an integration rate if booking a ticket for more than one mode of travel for the first time.
As for the information, the integration fare is a new policy that is currently still under discussion and waiting for approval from the Jakarta government after previously being approved by the Jakarta Legislative Council (DPRD).
