| Consideration | QARD™ | Specialised city card | Standalone ticketing | Fully bespoke software |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary scope | Cards, tickets, loyalty, content and customer engagement on one platform | Tourism passes and partner acceptance | Sales, admission and ticket management | Functions specified separately by the customer |
| Customisation | Modular operation, own brand and project-specific configuration | Usually predefined pass workflows | Usually centred on the sales journey | High freedom with separate development and maintenance |
