Fare payment refers to the process of paying for transportation services, such as buses, trains, or taxis. Passengers typically pay a fare to access these services, which can vary based on distance, time, or type of vehicle. Payment methods may include cash, credit/debit cards, or mobile payment apps, making it convenient for users. In many urban areas, fare payment systems are integrated with public transportation networks, allowing for seamless transfers between different modes of transport. Technologies like contactless cards and mobile ticketing have simplified the fare payment process, enhancing the overall travel experience for commuters.
