Trolleys where required is optimised and allows maximum flexibility to react quickly to changing circumstances.

RENTAL SERVICE
Each dispenser has a 19” touch screen display and multilingual interface with video-instructions.
1. The passenger introduces the fee by any major credit card, coins or notes (The dispenser can return the change in the form of notes and coins)
2. When the correct amount is introduced, the front panel indicates to the user that he/she may withdraw a trolley from the guide rail. The user gets a receipt (Optional).
3. Once the user has finished using the trolley he/she can just leave it as per their convenience or return it to any dispensing location. No reimbursement is provided.

Change is provided in bills and/or coins. Once the payment is done, the passenger will receive a QR code ticket as a receipt for using the trolley.
2. By doing this, the dispenser releases a single trolley, inviting the passenger to collect it through the illuminated arrow sign on each turnstile.
