Single Fare Transaction WorkflowThe
China UnionPay
(CUP) single fare transaction workflow begins when the rider
taps a payment card on a contactless terminal at a point of access to a transit system.
This workflow is a Pay As You Go (PAYG) model. Tap-in and tap-out data are collected and
sent to the transit system for fare calculation after a single trip. Figure:

- The cardholder taps the card to enter the transit system.
- The gate validates the card using offline data authentication (ODA), the card expiration date, and the deny list.
- When the card is valid, the gate allows the passenger to enter the transit system.
- When the ODA fails, the card is added to the deny list, and the debt recovery process begins. See Debt Recovery Workflows.
- You send an authorization request for a nominal amount.
- When the authorization is successful, you calculate the fare for the travel period.
