• Access the wall by typing the url or with an NFC phone from a sticker placed in the 213 canopied tramstops in Helsinki
• Another NFC sticker in the tramstops also offered ease to buy a SMS ticket

Results of the pilot

customer service quality/accidents…)
• NFC phone usage – 6% accessed the service though the NFC sticker in the
tramstops – During 12.9. – 18.11. 387 SMS mobile tickets were
ordered – 203 unique phone numbers bought SMS tickets

Results of the pilot
• Moderation seemed to be the bottleneck
• Interaction with others was longed after in the messages (like, respond)
• NFC was perceived as an easy way to access the service or buy a ticket (comments on the wall)
>> The service hasn’t been developed further after the pilot

”Everything is going fine otherwise (with the pilot), but my [red brains tried to use the library card to pay the bus trip. Uups!”

• Libraries (Helsinki, Espoo) are interested in taking the card into a wider use as a library card
• Conversa[ons started with other city-‐organiza[ons and private companies as well
• In the future the card will be replaced by mobile >> what will be the iden[ty of te card >> who will be the card operator in the long run
