NCMC Technology: A Step Towards Cashless Travel or a Complicated Mess?
The National Common Mobility Card (NCMC) is a transformative initiative launched by the Government of India in 2019 to streamline transit payments and promote cashless transactions across the country. Designed to be a "One Nation, One Card" solution, the NCMC aims to provide seamless access to metros, buses, trains, and even retail outlets using a single contactless card.
Key Features of NCMC
Interoperability: NCMCs are designed to be used across various transit systems in different cities, unlike city-specific metro cards that are limited to their respective networks.
Contactless Transactions: Equipped with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, NCMCs allow users to make payments by simply tapping the card on a compatible reader, enhancing convenience and security.
