What are the features/benefits of the new Standard Ticket? How is it different from the current ticket?
With the new Standard Ticket, a lower deposit of 10 cents will be required instead of the current $1. As the new Standard Ticket can be used up to six times within 30 days from the date of purchase, the deposit of 10 cents will be automatically returned through an off-set against the passenger's fare on the third trip to encourage passengers to reuse the ticket. As a further incentive and to minimize wastage of the standard tickets, a discount of 10 cents will be given for the sixth trip. Presently, passengers have to buy a new standard ticket for each trip with no discount given and a higher deposit.
In addition, passengers using the new Standard Ticket can choose to buy a 'Return Trip' in addition to a 'Single Trip'. A maximum of two trips can be bought on the card at a time. Similar to today, trips bought on the Standard Ticket are valid for use on the date of ticket purchase and on the MRT/LRT. Presently, only a single trip can be bought on the Standard Ticket.
Example of how the new Standard Ticket scheme works:
1st trip If the fare for the first trip is $1, the passenger will need to pay $1.10. This comprises the $1 travel fare and the 10 cents deposit.
2nd trip Passenger pays amount as per the travel fare for the second trip.
3rd trip If the fare is $1, the passenger will only pay 90 cents as the deposit of 10 cents will be automatically returned through an off-set against passenger's fare on their third trip.
4th trip Passenger pays amount as per the travel fare for the fourth trip.
5th trip Passenger pays amount as per the travel fare for the fifth trip.
6th trip If the fare for the sixth trip is $1, the passenger will only need to pay 90 cents due to the 10 cents discount given for the sixth trip.
