  20. Soft roll-out option Avoid up-front capital cost of full barcode scanner rollout Visually inspect at launch Staff report barcode ticket usage levels each week Occasional SMS or scan checks Staged scanner rollout for routes with significant adoption
  21. UK Rail Barcode Ticket Standard RSPS3001 Approved in December 2008as the UK standard for self print and mobile barcode rail ticketing
  22. Shared Barcode Standard Share self-print and mobile barcodes between Operators and 3rd party retailers Public and open security Based on PKI, standard SSL certificates Decentralised system - robust Cheap to implement and use
  23.
