Oyster Business Case In the 1990s London Transport wanted: Congestion relief from increased gate throughput Fraud reduction from over-riding, lost and stolen passes, etc. Reduction in number of tickets sold

Recent successes Oyster on national rail – Final stage launched on 2 Jan 2010 – Goal was to bring all national rail stations in London within Oyster pay as you go; extends benefits of PAYG to all of London – Added 250 stations to existing network – Total of 615 rail stations and 8,300 buses now on Oyster – Dramatic traffic build-up with 2m national rail journeys per week on Oyster pay as you go Oyster on Thames river boats – Launched in November 2009 – Rapidly built up 25% of river boat traffic on pay as you go

Current challenges Despite the visible success of Oyster, ticketing still represents a difficult business model Need to think from first principles about models for revenue collection

5 The future of money Contactless bankcard and mobile payment platforms finally seem to be appearing on the market
