Pay For Parking From A Smartphone App

Parkmobile makes the lives of motorists and parkers easier. The app is built to eliminate the hassles associated with the traditional parking system, wherein people need to feed parking meters with coins or have to walk just to get paper receipts and pay for their parking sessions. With Parkmobile, they no longer need to do any of these. This is because Parkmobile is a mobile parking payment solution that provides motorists and parkers with the capability to pay for metered parking right straight from their mobile phones. Thus, they will be able to pay for parking while sitting comfortably in their cars or spending time with their colleagues or friends somewhere else.

Easy To Register

To be able to enjoy the convenience of paying for parking from a smartphone app, users need to register first to Parkmobile. After downloading the app from Google Play or App Store, they can register to Parkmobile’s system within the app. They have to create an account, choose a payment method, and enter the license plate number of their car. When it comes to selecting a payment method, they can link their MasterPass, Visa Checkout, or Paypal account. Also, Parkmobile permits them to register up to 5 license plate numbers and 5 users as they set up an account.

Start A Parking Session Immediately

Once parkers and motorists are able to register to Parkmobile, they can then start using the app. Parkmobile is offered in more than 1,000,000, parking spots across the US, and users can easily identify these spots through the aid of the Parkmobile sign or sticker. Thus, when they go to a parking spot supported by Parkmobile, they will be able to see this sign or sticker which contains a zone number. Then, they will enter the parking zone number in the app. The app will ask them to specify how long they want to park. It will also show the maximum parking time allotted for that particular spot and the amount they have to pay.

Identify Parking Zone Numbers And Save Blocks

Furthermore, In the event that users can’t find the zone number associated with a block. Parkmobile permits them to easily search for it. The app will show all the nearby parking zones including their numbers. They can also save the spots or blocks where they are frequently parking as “Favorite” or “Most Recently Used” zones. This way, they can save time, as they don’t have to look for the parking zone numbers anymore.

Expiration Notifications

One of the amazing and exciting features offered by Parkmobile is its ability to send motorists and parkers notifications when their parking sessions are about to end. These notifications can be sent either through text or email. This feature will help users prevent overparking, especially for spots that have a maximum parking time limit.

Extend Parking Sessions

When users haven’t reached yet the maximum parking time for a metered space or spot, they can extend their parking session without worrying about if they are far from the car or the parking meter machine. This is because they will be able to extend the parking time from the app wherever they are. However, to be able to do this their smartphone should be connected to the Internet.

Never Display A Receipt Again

In the traditional parking system, motorists and parkers usually display a receipt in the windshield so that the parking attendant or enforcement office can determine that they already paid for their parking session. With Parkmobile, this is no longer needed, as the parking attendant or enforcement officer can quickly verify when a motorist has already paid by checking the license plate number the motorist has entered into the app.
