# Google Transit Insights (GTI) Registration

With Google Transit Insights, Google is bringing a superior digital experience for Transit Issuers systems that support open loop.

It provides a means to deeply engage with contactless users and get full value from fares policy.

It helps users understand fares, build confidence in the system and grow trust in the transit agency.

### Workflow <a href="#workflow" id="workflow"></a>

Below are the high level steps of the GTI registration workflow:

1. **Discovery**: when using a phone containing tokenized open loop card to enter Transit rails, the customer will see a notification about a new program on the phone and in the Google wallet if he opens it later.
2. **Opt-in**: The customer taps the notification and is taken to GTI program information and activation terms.
3. **Registration**: Google sends a register tokenized card request to D1 Transit in order to link existing device EMV token to a transit account. Once GTI registration is done, Google sends request to fetch Transit-related metadata.

#### Registration <a href="#registration" id="registration"></a>

When receiving the registerTokenizedPaymentCard from Google, D1 Transit sends a registerCardAccount to Back Office, so it can decrypt data provided and identify the token to be linked, using its payment gateway.

In case of re-registration (for example renewal of EMV token), Google sends a registerTokenizedPaymentCard with existing cardId. Based on configuration, D1 Transit either creates a new card account or uses the existing one.

#### Metadata <a href="#metadata" id="metadata"></a>

Google sends a request through metadata API to D1 Transit. D1 Transit returns them to Google by calling Transit Issuer with the get card account metadata API.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.payments.thalescloud.io/transit-digitization/implement-google-transit/account-based-ticketing-abt/google-transit-insights-gti-registration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
