Lightening The Parking Approach
Meet the 4 pillars of embracing a lighter approach to parking equipment:
1) Lighten the hardware load.
When parking management is effective, the payment process is quick, convenient, and safe for drivers and operators. Embrace digital parking solutions and shed the capital and maintenance costs that come with traditional parking equipment. Instead, you can rely on intuitive, streamlined operations.
2) Digitize your parking assets.
Thanks to their fast implementation, low capital investment, and built-in flexibility, QR parking systems and text-to-pay parking platforms are skyrocketing in popularity. These software-based solutions give consumers what they want in today’s e-commerce world—quick, simple ways to get to where they’re going.
3) Take the driver’s seat.
With our flexible self-service back office platform, you’re in full control of your parking operation. No more waiting around for third-party vendor support. Use easy DIY tools to make rate and zone changes in response to outside forces—special events, construction, or whatever happens on the road
4) Make the best impression.
The first impression is made when a driver claims their parking spot. Set the bar high with a smooth parking experience! Offer the award-winning HONKAPP (available in iOS and Google Play), HONKTAP, our revolutionary express checkout feature, and HONKTEXT, our text-to-park solution.
