According to January 20, this year's Spring Festival travel rush, you can take the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Railway train by swiping Alipay. This is the first case of taking a train on a mobile phone in the country. Passengers do not need to buy tickets in advance, nor are they afraid of forgetting to bring their ID cards. They take intercity trains just like taking a bus or subway through the code. Relying on facial recognition technology and Alipay ride-hailing technology that has been widely used in the field of buses and subways, the railway department has solved the problem that railways must buy tickets in real name and take a train with real name, and realizes taking a train with a mobile phone.
