Do you have any insight into the economics of this in general compared to other disposable solutions. Are manufacturing old school magnetic stripe tickets, or just optical scanning/barcodes a lot cheaper?
I imagine magnetic stripes have a higher failure to read rate at the turnstile causing issues, while both them and optical scanning requires the ticket to be inserted into the machine, adding complexity and moving parts.
