Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced the general
availability of Versatrans®Pay
to Ride, a payment management tool for school districts that must
assess ridership fees. Demand for the Pay to Ride solution has grown
recently as some school boards have decided to charge ridership fees to
students' families as a way to help offset district transportation costs.
