Wikipedia Overview
Motu Move is a contactless fare payment system in development as the National Ticketing Solution (NTS) for New Zealand, a project first proposed in 2007. Contracted to the American company Cubic Transportation Systems, it was first piloted on Route 29 in Christchurch with adult non-concession fares, beginning on 8 December 2024. Following the trial, initial rollout began in Greater Christchurch on 10 November 2025 with the full range of payment options and concessions. By 2027, Motu Move is expected to be available nationwide excluding the Marlborough region. The aim is to achieve a nationally consistent payment system, offering a choice of payment by contactless bank cards, mobile payment methods, pre-bought tickets or a prepaid Motu Move card valid throughout the country.
