Parking place

Parkmobile USA has entered into a partnership with Digital Payment Technologies, T2 Systems and Republic Parking to introduce its new mobile parking payment service in St Louis, Missouri, US.

The new service allows customers to make their parking payments through via the Parkmobile app, which is available for iPhone, Android, Windows and Blackberry smartphones.

"This technology offers customers a new and better way to pay for parking. Our mobile payment service is an example of another technology that can make our lives easier and more efficient."

To use the new Parkmobile system, customers can register for free using the app or the company’s official website. After setting up an account with their registered mobile phone, they can start using the system immediately.

Users can also choose to receive alerts and reminders 15 minutes before their parking session expires.

Parkmobile USA CEO Cherie Fuzzell said: "This technology offers customers a new and better way to pay for parking. Our mobile payment service is an example of another technology that can make our lives easier and more efficient."

Commenting on the partnership, Digital Payment Technologies senior product manager Michael Hamilton said: "This integrated solution gives consumers the freedom to choose the most convenient way to pay."

The pilot programme is being offered along N 10th Street, and will run through July.
