The Anm of Naples has signed an agreement with the Telecom Italia company for the preparation of a platform to allow all Neapolitan citizens to purchase and validate their Tickets for the bus directly via lo smartphone.
It is the so-called “mobile ticketing” and it is a circumstance made necessary by the advancement of technology and by the need to make our daily actions ever easier.
It is a project that was born thanks to the Ministry of Transport and the diffusion of electronic purchasing and authentication systems, possible thanks to the NFC technology.

The purchase and cancellation, electronically, of tickets for means of transport will be disseminated throughout Italy also thanks to special telephone sim which will allow you to buy tickets and keep them safe until the moment of use.
In our country, this technology will be provided by the collaboration between Telecom and the Sia Group, a networking company whose task will be to devote itself to the purchase of travel documents from smartphone, to recharge and use the tickets themselves.
