About the project
Management application for remote device control
We started working on the development of software for ticket machines and the application for remote management in 2019.
The aim of the project was to develop a complementary commercial product in the form of a Back Office application for managing ticket machines.
Further into the project, BoostHigh also engaged in programming directly on the hardware level of the ticket vending machine.
What were the main requirements?
Milestones that determined the success of the project
We were responsible for five main modules:
- Back Office for remote management
- Layout editor
- Ticket editor
- Ticket vending machine software
- Integrations with third-party services
All of the implementations had been delivered on time and within the budget.
Main Features
Generating financial, sales and service reports
The basic function of the Back Office application is to generate financial and sales reports needed to document sales. All tickets sales are documented so that the accounting department can use the information for monthly summaries.
Ticket machine application update and maintenance
To facilitate maintenance, all customers have access to the individual devices status provided in the form of a list of faults and failures. A number of faults and errors can be identified and repaired remotely. Other errors can be analyzed by the system making fixing the defects much easier.
Ticket editor
Back Office allows you to remotely change the pricing and tariff. We have created a complementary editor for this function, which allows you to create new ticket views. They can be adapted to local events and differ in design.
Pricing and tariff management, edition and change of the tariff form
The ticket layout and pricing are often subject to change. The Back Office allows you to remotely edit the available layouts and add / remove tickets. All changes can be preset so that the changes are published on a specific date and time.
View editor for ticket machine layout
The biggest feature available from the Back Office level is the editor that allows you to create and edit the view available on the ticket machine.
Thanks to this, the customer can easily add, remove and edit elements visible on the ticket machine screen.
Integration with the vehicle’s computer
Some of the functions of the ticket machines require information obtained from the vehicle’s computer. Data such as the number of the bus line and the name of the stop are used to generate detailed financial data.

Testimonials
“BoostHigh has been one of our key software partners in multiple projects so far. This time we cooperated to develop software for ticket vending machines and a complementary management system. The project wouldn’t be successful without BoostHigh’s expertise and programming skills. They brought stability and helped us deliver the product on time.
