The story

Movia was created on January 1, 2007, as part of the 2007 municipal reform. Its predecessors were the county transit agencies of the old Vestsjællands Amt and Storstrøms Amt, and HUR Trafik which covered the old "capital region" consisting of Roskilde Amt, Frederiksborg Amt, and Københavns Amt (plus the independent municipalities of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg). Each of the three agencies had its own integrated fare system, which have been continued by Movia as three distinct "fare areas", with small changes to the existing inter-agency fare rules.

The agency implemented a new fare system which replaced most paper tickets by contactless smartcards. It is fully implemented in the western Zealand (Vestsjælland) and southern Zealand (Sydsjælland) fare areas, and in the capital area (Hovedstadsområdet).
