        abstract = {In modern urban settings, passengers face challenges with multiple fare systems across various transportation modes like buses, trains, and metros, resulting in inconvenience and inefficiency. This paper introduces a Smart Master Card system that integrates all transportation modes into a unified platform. Leveraging RFID technology and IoT-based real-time monitoring the proposed system enables seamless travel through automated ticketing and fare deduction based on the selected source and destination. This eliminates the need for manual fare collection and ensures a smooth, hassle-free commuting experience for users. The centralized and secure architecture of the Smart Master Card system simplifies transportation by unifying payment across multiple modes. It reduces operational costs, enhances system efficiency, and significantly decreases manpower requirements. The innovative use of IoT integration automation and a single fare card addresses key urban transportation challenges, making the system a step towards smarter and more efficient public transit.},
