LONDON, ON Feb. 21 2018 – HONK, North America’s fastest and most convenient way to find and pay for parking, today announced it will waive convenience fees for all mobile parking transactions at municipal parking in London Ontario for the remainder of the month. HONK is the official mobile parking payment provider for the City of London, this gesture of goodwill is an effort to thank the drivers of London who have embraced mobile parking payments over the last 8 months, and to entice new users to come on board.

The HonkAPP lets users search, pay for, and top up parking directly from their smartphone, tablet or computer. No paper slip goes in the car windshield – the app seamlessly passes license plate numbers for paid sessions to parking enforcement for proof of payment. Users simply click, pay, and walk away.

Adding to the convenience, the app notifies users when their parking is set to expire, allowing them to buy additional time remotely and eliminating the need to rush back to feed the meter.

HONK charges a $0.25 convenience fee with every parking transaction which goes towards technology maintenance and customer service – ensuring a seamless and hassle-free experience when paying for parking with the app. The fee either gets pushed to the user or the parking provider incurs the fee. City of London parking enforcement officers will be flyering vehicles to inform drivers about this limited time offer.

“Winter months are the busiest for mobile payment in parking – nobody wants to be standing outside in the cold waiting for their credit card to process at the machine,” said HONK Founder and CEO Michael Back. “We’re coming up to our 1 year here, so we decided to give back to the London community and eat the convenience fee for the remainder of February.”

HONK is on a mission to transform parking with a faster, more convenient and easier experience while helping our communities reduce congestion, pollution and wear on roads. Londoners can now save their $0.25 on parking for the remainder of the month, and be on their way faster, smarter and warmer with HONK!
