Atlânticoline has partnered with Carus to enhance its digital systems for inter-island ferry services in the Azores.
The project includes an online resident validation service to manage reduced fares for Azorean residents, ensuring eligibility is verified without increasing operational complexity. Carus brings relevant experience from similar implementations, including Madeira.
In parallel, the solution will support Portugal’s mandatory digitally signed invoicing, linking every ticket sale to a compliant invoice. Carus has delivered comparable systems in several regulated markets, including Portugal, Turkey, Mexico and Honduras.
