Identive Collaborates with Land Transport Authority on New Smart
Paper Tickets for Singapore’s Public Transit System
$3.9 million contract awarded to supply NFC transit tickets over three years
SANTA ANA, Calif. and ISMANING, Germany, August 19, 2013 – Identive Group, Inc.
(NASDAQ: INVE) (Frankfurt: INV) has collaborated with the Land Transport Authority (LTA)
in Singapore to design new smart chip-based transit tickets for the Southeast Asian country’s
extensive rail network. TransitLink, as the LTA administrator, has awarded Identive a
three-year contract valued at $3.9 million to supply the tickets, which include near field
communication (NFC) chips from Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY).
“This project demonstrates Identive’s commitment to leveraging our unique expertise to
create smart transit credentials,” said Dr. Manfred Mueller, executive vice president and
COO, Identification Products for Identive. “The convenience of contactless tickets positions
the market for explosive growth. The gating factor has been authorities’ and agencies’
confidence in the security of ticket readers and payment. Identive provides a proven solution
as smart transit tickets are a core competency. We are confident our collaboration with LTA
will ensure the new NFC tickets work within the country’s transit infrastructure to help move
Singapore’s five million citizens and tourists efficiently and with ease.”
Identive’s end to end capabilities make it a one-stop shop able to tag, code, lock and print
transit tickets for LTA. In the last two and a half years, Identive has quadrupled production
capacity in Singapore to address a growing global market for contactless tickets for transport.
Identive custom engineered a fanfold construction for the new paper tickets that delivers
exceptional durability, from issuance through multiple trips within the transit network. The
contactless technology embedded in the tickets facilitates rapid processing through
automated fare gates at transit stations throughout Singapore. The smart transit tickets, each
with its own unique identifier and intelligence, incorporate my-d™ move NFC chips from
Infineon with 152 bytes EEPROM and 128 bytes user memory in accordance with ISO/IEC
14443 and NFC ForumTM
Type 2 Tag standards. Identive embeds the chips within an
aluminium-etched antenna on a PET inlay that is optimized for performance within
