Introduction of mixway Package
The
mixway Package is a municipal service designed to integrate various travel-related functions into a mobility application. This package utilizes LINE’s official accounts as its interface, providing access to local travel information, step-by-step transportation searches, reservation capabilities, payments, digital tickets, and coupons, all aimed at facilitating urban development initiatives centered on mobility.
