The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has introduced a digital QR ticketing system for commuters in partnership with Amazon Pay. This new system aims to provide a seamless, contactless, and efficient experience for the millions of daily users of the Delhi Metro. Commuters can now purchase mobile QR tickets through Amazon Pay by selecting the ‘Delhi Metro QR ticket’ option, choosing their departure and destination stations, and completing the payment process. The QR ticket is then generated instantly on their mobile devices.
At metro stations, users simply need to scan the QR code on their smartphones at the Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) gates to gain entry and exit. Dr. Vikas Kumar, Managing Director of DMRC, stated, “Partnering with Amazon Pay for QR ticketing will make daily journeys more efficient and enjoyable. This innovative approach offers convenience, reduces paper waste, and supports our sustainability efforts.” This new system marks a significant step towards enhancing the commuting experience and promoting eco-friendly practices in Delhi’s public transportation network.
