In December, Gregory Carmona, General Manager of Moventis Pays de Montbéliard, collected the award given to the company by the magazine “Ville, Rail et Transport” in December 2020.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Moventis developed digital payment method solutions in record time.
This digitalisation of payment methods, which was rolled out swiftly and announced during the first lockdown, was necessary to guarantee employee safety and also meet the needs of users. With support from Airweb, a French leader in digital sales, Moventis was able to ensure safety for on-board ticket sales from the end of the first week of lockdown. A fortnight later, it launched the ÉvolitY Pass app to offer most of its available bus passes in a digital format.
“Initial results are highly encouraging, with sales via smartphones accounting for nearly 20%. After only six months, we are leading our sector within the transport industry”, explains Gregory Carmona, General Manager at Moventis Pays de Montbéliard.
Moventis Pays de Montbéliard was up against such cities as Toulon and Tours for this award, which are urban areas with more inhabitants than Montbéliard, meaning that receiving this award is a major milestone for the company given the size and resources of its competitors.
