Administration of an Incentive Program Encouraging Public Transport Usage

摘要

An incentive program manager is provided for administering an incentive program encouraging public transport usage. The incentive program manager includes a processor, a memory including computer program code, and an input port. The input port is configured to receive an indication of usage of a public transport facility by a participant registered with the incentive program and an indication of usage of a private transport facility registered with the incentive program and owned by the participant. The memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the incentive program manager to: determine a reward to the participant for the usage of the public transport facility and a penalty for the usage of the private transport facility; provide data indicative of the determined reward and the determined penalty; and update a balance in a member account with the determined reward and the determined penalty.
