Kajeet, a leader in managed IoT connectivity solutions, has introduced Kajeet Transit, a rider engagement platform designed to enhance public transit experiences through secure Wi-Fi, digital signage, and targeted advertising opportunities. In partnership with Long Beach Transit, the pilot program launched in January 2025 across 25 buses, delivering improved connectivity, communication, and convenience for passengers.
Since its launch, more than 2,000 unique riders have accessed the system, demonstrating its effectiveness in engaging transit users. Kajeet Transit equips transit agencies with:
- Rider Wi-Fi with Captive Portal – A secure, branded internet access point for passengers.
- Passenger Information Display System – Dynamic visual communication channels for real-time service updates, public announcements, and advertising.
- Kajeet-Enabled Cellular Router – Managed connectivity powered by Sentinel™, ensuring reliable and secure network performance.
Beyond improving the passenger experience, the platform creates revenue opportunities for transit agencies by supporting local and national advertising through Kajeet’s integrated ad platform. The captive portal also facilitates direct rider engagement, enabling transit agencies to build and maintain active communication channels with passengers.
