Whether taking a train, bus, bike, scooter, taxi, ride-hail or driving, riders are moving about urban environments in more diverse ways than ever. At Mastercard, we are working to make rider journeys simpler, quicker and more efficient. Our mobility journey began 10 years ago with a desire to simplify rider journeys around London by introducing the world’s first open-loop transit system. That journey continues on today as we introduce and evolve concepts such as open micromobility, in-vehicle payments, inclusive public mobility, next-generation congestion, road-user charging and more.
