HRTC Introduces Bus Fare Payment System Using QR Codes

The Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC) has launched a new program that enables passengers to pay for their bus fares at booking counters by scanning QR codes.

This is an effort to improve customer convenience. 

In addition to HRTC's booking counters around the state, this option is now offered at counters in Delhi, Chandigarh, Haridwar, and Dehradun, among other places.

HRTC has partnered with Paytm, the industry leader in mobile wallets, to put this digital payment system into place. 

All HRTC booking counters now have sound boxes and scan codes installed, which makes paying easier for both customers and booking clerks. 

Upon payment of the fare, both the passenger and the booking clerk will get an instant acknowledgment over the sound box with a confirmation message.
