TRANSFORMATIVE

- ROBIN-LEE FRANCKE

THE daily scramble for exact change and the risks linked to carrying cash on minibus taxis could soon become a thing of the past in the Western Cape as the Cape Organisation for the Democratic Taxi Association (Codeta) prepares to roll out a fully cashless payment system from June 1.

The move by one of the province's largest taxi associations marks a major shift for the public transport sector, with commuters set to pay for trips using specialised tap cards or scan-to-pay mobile technology.

Codeta said the initiative is aimed at improving commuter safety, reducing cash-related crime and bringing the taxi industry in line with modern payment trends.
