In India millions of Railway passengers are buying tickets ( reserved, unreserved, wait listed) using cash / credit cards at the railway offices or through internet.

Given the huge number of mobile users with sufficient ENGLISH TEXTING SKILLS we can make the people to define their ticket requirement easily in SMS by providing a customized template

FOR UNRESEVED TICKETS PURCHASE it is very easy, because it contains only a few entries.

Name of the ORIGIN STATION ……………………………………….


Name of the destination STATION ………………………………………..



Class of ticket I / II / A/C /


When the passenger enters the above information on the template provided in the cell phone and sends the SMS to a specific number , he should be issued a confirmation message


IN CASE OF RESERVED TICKETS , the passenger needs to enter some more details like train number, passenger’s name , gender, age, address etc.


If need be a printed ticket can be given to the passenger from ATM receipt printer type gadget.


WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF THIS SYSTEM?


No need to handle cash.

No need to stand in the QUEUE

In short , the ATMs in the bank reduced our visits to the bank and improved our life considerably. Like wise this mobile wallet will reduce the drudgery of cash HANDLING and queue in our daily chores.

I t can be extended to bus tickets purchase / utility payments too.
