Bonus credit cards are now tickets Current News / (12.09.2007)
Garanti Bank follows the success of its ParaCard system with a new smart ticket system entitled “Easy Transportation”. Now passengers are able to use their Bonus Trink credit cards to pay fares at the buses operated by the municipal transportation authorities in the provinces of Samsun and Tekirdağ, and win bonus points in the meantime.
Developed by Garanti Bank, this new system is based on the principle that passengers can use their Bonus Trink credit cards, which are in watch, key-ring or label format, to pay fares at over 200 buses operated by the municipal transportation authority in Samsun.
Mehmet Sezgin, managing director of the Payment Systems Department of Garanti Bank, said “We aim to launch this system in other cities too. We shall launch it in Erzurum, Çorum and Tekirdağ within January.”
