Mobility as a Service?

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) integrates various forms of transport and transport-related services into a single, comprehensive, and on-demand mobility service. MaaS offers end-users the added value of accessing mobility through a single application and a single payment channel (instead of multiple ticketing and payment operations). To meet a customer’s request, a MaaS operator hosts a diverse menu of transport options, including (but not limited to) public transport, active modes such as walking and cycling, ride/ car/bike-sharing, taxi, and car rental or lease, or a combination thereof. MaaS aims to be the best value proposition for users, societies, and the environment. 

A successful MaaS service also brings new business models and ways to organise and operate the various transport options, with advantages for transport operators including access to improved user and demand information and new opportunities to serve an unmet need. MaaS aims to provide an alternative to using the private car that may be as convenient, more sustainable, help reduce congestion and constraints in transport capacity and be even cheaper.

Why do we need MaaS?

MaaS fulfils users’ needs for mobility with a wide range of transport services for both travellers and goods, offering tailor-made transport on demand. A MaaS service provider arranges the most suitable transportation means to meet a customer’s needs, whether public transport, taxi or car rental or even ride-, car- or bike-sharing.

MaaS also offers new opportunities for sales channels, access to untapped customer demand, simplified user account and payment management, and richer data on transport providers’ travel demand patterns and dynamics. The MaaS Alliance can help you position your business to take maximum advantage of this fast-growing new market opportunity. Learn more about how you can join the Alliance.
