As of 2022, the general trend is the greater availability of electronic fareboxes than mechanical ones on public transportation vehicles. This is exemplified in the figures regarding bus and commuter bus, with 78.8 and 95.8 percent of transit agencies, respectively offering electronic fareboxes, and 12.5 and 16.7 percent, respectively, for mechanical fareboxes. Some modes of transport like trolleybus and streetcar railway offer no mechanical fareboxes. And some, like commuter rail and cable car, use other methods like electronic turnstiles or proof of payment that is checked on vehicle by a transit employee.
Share of public transport agencies using electronic and mechanical fareboxes in the total number of agencies in the United States and Canada in 2022, by transportation mode
For each transportation mode, a different number of agencies reported on it. The figures are calculated in the same manner with the number of agencies offering mechanical fareboxes on their transport mode is divided by the total number of agencies reporting on that mode. The same is done separately for electronic farebox availability.
