Ximedes joins forces with Bovertis to combine OV-HOST with POS hardware & software.
The cooperation between Ximedes & Bovertis has been expanded by being allowed to deliver a joint cash register solution for another Public Transport company. Following GVB, RET and Transdev, this carrier will make use of the OV-HOST/POST solution of Ximedes and this time in combination with the POS solution of Bovertis.
Bovertis will supply the necessary hardware and the POS software. Through an integration with the functionality of the Ximedes solution, the possibility is unlocked to provide OV card related services to the traveler and also to sell OV related products (including topping up the balance of the closed loop OV card). The combined solution will be rolled out in the (mobile) service points of the Public Transport Operator.
Paul Dumasy (Bovertis): "We are very much looking forward to the intensification of the cooperation with Ximedes on the one hand and our joint customer on the other hand where we will spread our wings further outside of Airport Retail, where Bovertis has more than earned its spurs. We are driven to make a success of this specific segment of Public Transport and we thank our client for the trust they have placed in us.
The sales system will be set up in such a way that - in time - it will also be possible to sell e.g. barcodes. Travelling with a barcode (also a product of Ximedes) will - like travelling with a bank card - be one of the new forms in the coming years that travellers can use.
John-Peter Veldkamp (Ximedes): "With this combined solution we can continue to support the carriers with both the current OV system, but we are also prepared for what is yet to come."
