Wiremind Unveils PAXONE OSDM Sandbox for Ticketing Innovations
On June 5, 2025, Wiremind, a prominent provider of cutting-edge solutions for the transport and ticketing industry, announced the introduction of the PAXONE OSDM Sandbox. This new open environment aims to facilitate the testing and validation of Open Sales and Distribution Management (OSDM) solutions, placing Wiremind as a key player in promoting standardized and open data management practices across the industry.
The OSDM model is recognized as an open standard that streamlines the distribution and management of transportation tickets, enhancing data exchange between operators, suppliers, and partners. By adopting OSDM, stakeholders in the transportation sector are poised to experience greater interoperability, reduced complexity in integrations, and enhanced automated processes concerning fare management and ticket issuance.
Why Choose the PAXONE OSDM Sandbox?
The PAXONE OSDM Sandbox presents developers and industry stakeholders with an exclusive environment aimed at:
- - Testing and Evaluating: Users can explore the capabilities and performance of the OSDM standard prior to committing to a full-scale implementation.
- - Experimenting and Debugging: Parties can identify and resolve potential issues in their OSDM implementations without affecting their live production systems.
- - Contributing to Development: Participants can actively engage in the progression of the OSDM standard, testing scenarios, verifying behaviors, and validating integrations.
This flexible development environment allows transportation providers and their partners to confirm their implementations, minimizing costs and risks before proceeding to production.
As noted by Bertrand Minary, Director of UIC Passenger Services, and Vittorio Carta, Director of Transport Policy for Europe at Deutsche Bahn AG, "Transport and ticketing companies regularly encounter challenges around integration, security, and efficiency when adopting new data standards. The PAXONE OSDM Sandbox from Wiremind significantly lowers the entry barriers, enabling a more confident adoption of OSDM standards."
Rémi Habfast, General Director of PAXONE, added, "The launch of our new testing platform represents a significant advancement for PAXONE, assisting in the smooth integration of distributors with our solution. We are excited to provide companies with an accessible, secure, and powerful platform to test and validate their solutions, leading to seamless implementation."
