In today’s rapidly evolving public transportation landscape, efficient and secure payment systems have become essential for both operators and passengers. Xiamen Lans Communication Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 430491), established in 2006, has emerged as a global leader in intelligent transportation solutions, specializing in smart payment terminals that are transforming how people pay for transit across 400+ cities worldwide.
As a national high-tech enterprise recognized with multiple awards including China’s Hidden Champion and Fujian Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award, Lans Communication brings nearly two decades of expertise to the public transit sector. Our core focus lies in developing integrated hardware-software solutions that address the complex payment needs of modern transportation systems while ensuring security, reliability, and passenger convenience.
Advanced Payment Technology for Global Transit Systems
Our flagship product, the smart payment terminal, represents the pinnacle of transit payment technology. Designed specifically for public buses, passenger coaches, and campus shuttles, these devices support multiple payment methods including QR code scanning, magnetic card swiping, NFC contactless payments, ID card verification, bank card transactions, and even advanced biometric authentication like facial recognition and palm vein scanning.
The terminal’s 4G connectivity ensures seamless transaction processing even in remote areas, while its offline caching capability guarantees uninterrupted service during network outages. This dual-mode operation has proven particularly valuable in developing regions where network infrastructure may be inconsistent, yet the need for reliable payment systems remains critical.
With over 1 million devices installed worldwide and partnerships with leading bus manufacturers including Yutong, King Long, and Golden Dragon, our payment solutions have become the standard for modern transit systems. In China alone, we serve major transit operators like Xiamen Bus, Chengdu Bus, and Haiqi Group, while our international footprint extends to 40+ countries including Thailand, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Mongolia, Pakistan, and Malaysia.

FAQ
What payment methods do your bus terminals support?
Our smart payment terminals support all major payment methods including QR code scanning, NFC contactless payments, magnetic card swiping, ID card verification, bank card transactions, and optional facial recognition. This comprehensive support ensures compatibility with various regional payment systems and passenger preferences worldwide.
How does the offline payment functionality work?
The terminal stores transactions in secure memory when offline, with capacity for up to 10,000 transactions. Once connectivity resumes, it automatically syncs all pending transactions with the central system. This ensures uninterrupted service even in areas with unreliable network coverage, which is particularly valuable in developing regions.
Can your terminals integrate with existing transit systems?
Yes, our terminals are designed for easy integration with most transit management systems through standard interfaces. We provide comprehensive API documentation and technical support to ensure smooth implementation with your existing infrastructure, whether you’re upgrading from older systems or implementing new technology.
What security measures protect passenger payment data?
Security is our top priority. Our terminals comply with PCI PTS 5.x security standards and use end-to-end encryption for all transactions. Sensitive data is never stored locally, and all communication with payment processors occurs through secure channels. Regular firmware updates address emerging security threats to maintain protection.
How do you handle different currencies in international projects?
Our terminals support multi-currency processing and can be configured for specific regional requirements. For projects spanning multiple countries, we implement dynamic currency conversion and clear passenger displays showing amounts in both local and home currencies when applicable.
