PARTNER - VENTEK

Ticket vending machines, one back office

Ventek's ticket vending machines connect to Justride through our Retail Sales API - so a rider buying at a machine, in the app, or at a shop counter all end up in the same account, on the same back office, under the same fare rules.

How the integration works

  1. Rider selects a product at the ticket vending machine.

    The machine shows the same catalogue as every other sales channel.

  2. The machine takes cash or card.

    It handles the physical payment on the spot.

  3. Ventek calls the Justride Retail Sales API.

    The API issues the product or loads the rider's account.

  4. The sale lands in the Justride back office.

    It sits alongside app and retail purchases, with no separate reconciliation.

Key benefits for agencies

  • A cash channel that isn't a silo.

    Riders paying cash at a machine still get best-fare capping across the month, because the value goes to an account.

  • One integration, not one per machine type.

    The Retail Sales API is the same interface every retail channel uses.

  • Station presence without a second system.

    Machines at stations and interchanges share one fare policy and one set of reporting with every other channel.

  • Sales outside staffed hours.

    The full product catalogue stays available at stations when the ticket office is closed.
