Here in Holland they have a thing called a "strippenkaart" (strip ticket) for the bus/tram -- well, actually, they *had* it, they are now going over to a smart card with much drama. But anyway, everybody knows what it is, it is a bus ticket with 10 rides on it which you pay for all at once and get a small discount.
So for one person I offered a strippenkaart: 10 half days usable by the bearer, paid for up front which got them a small discount. It is very popular, especially in the work from home crowd. I have at least two folks who are using it even though I pointed out that my billing them for a monthly rate would be cheaper in a given month, they like the idea of the flexibility I suppose. I don't know if it would work in a place where the strip ticket is not a universally understood phenomenon, but I thought I would mention it.
