NO MORE COINS FOR THE BUS

Introducing Swype

HORIZONS WEST'S CASHLESS BUS TICKETING APP

In the age of PayPass and no minimum purchases on credit cards, cash is a thing of the past. If you are constantly fossicking around the house trying to find coins for your child's bus tickets, we've got your answer.

Swype gives you your own portal, from your smartphone or computer, where you can load up your child's tap-and-go card and track their journeys in real time.

For Parents

WHAT THE APP DOES

Simple Setup

Set up an account and register using your first and last name, your child's student ID and their school.

Easy Payment Methods

Add payment methods to load up your child's account, and set recurring payments.

Tracking

Track usage and spend, or add and remove children in real time.

Email Notifications

If your account gets low you'll be notified by email that it's time to top up.

Easy Access

Linked to the bus driver's tablet is a scanner. Your child uses their SmartRider or Mifare card, or gives their name, and the ride cost is deducted.

For Schools

BOARDING NUMBERS, WITHOUT THE MONTH-END GUESSWORK

Balancing at the end of the month with schools can be tricky business, and streamlined reports on the number of children boarding each bus are hard to come by. With digital scanning we know straight away how many are boarding, so we can work with your school to plan appropriate bus sizes for each route.
