Specialists LANTER"" (part of the group) LANIT realized the possibility of cashless payment for excursions and souvenir products by installing special terminals in the Ruskealsky Express retro train. This was announced by LANIT on February 10, 2022.

Information and payment terminals appeared on the tourist train on steam traction, daily running on the route Sortavala - Mountain Park "Ruskeala" - Sortavala.

The solution provides acceptance of all types of payment cards, as well as popular contactless payment instruments. Each transaction is registered with the Federal Tax Service using cloud-based payment financialization. To provide services in the zone of unstable communications, LANTER specialists introduced a mechanism for deferred payment and monitoring unpaid services with simultaneous notification of train conductors.
