Published: 3rd October 2024 How do QR codes streamline your parking? Visitors to a car park want a straightforward experience that lets them get on with their day with minimal interruption. Accessing information and services quickly helps to streamline how a site operates and putting the right solutions directly into a visitor’s hands is ideal. That’s where QR codes can be incredibly powerful. Explore more How do QR codes work? QR codes allow users to scan a unique image on their phone using their camera to access information. This works a lot like clicking a link on a website, which takes the user to a particular location or lets them access a specific service. They crop up in loads of different places, from packaging and leaflets to being used to great effect during the pandemic to let people order food in bars and restaurants. For a car park, a QR code is ideal for letting visitors quickly access solutions like secure payment portals, and app downloads, providing a direct link to payment or the app they need without having to type a URL or search their preferred app store. How does this help your visitors? Businesses adapt over time to embrace new technologies and services to make life easier for their staff and customers. This includes technology that can transform a car park. From pre-booking and permits to mobile payments and autopay, paying for parking has become increasingly more digital and online-based. The days of simple pay and display machines are over and far more options are available to people to manage their parking than ever before. Those new services and technologies mean there is a greater variety and convenience on a car park, however, this also means that not every visitor to your site is going to have the right app, payment portal or tool they necessarily need before they arrive. A QR code allows those new visitors to quickly access exactly what they need to make the best use of your car park. By arriving, and then scanning a code they can quickly download an app or register for parking through their phone, putting the control over their parking in the palm of their hand.
