How does Autopay streamline your parking?

At the end of a shopping trip, hotel stay, or hospital visit people often just want to go home.

The last obstacle before being able to head home is often paying to get out of the car park, this is a final opportunity for your site to impress and leave visitors with a good impression.

Queues, congestion and problems with payment machines all contribute to frustration when trying to exit a car park, but what if those problems could be done away with and your visitors could just leave?

What is Autopay?

Autopay is exactly as it sounds, it’s the ability for a motorist to pay for their parking automatically.

The process for Autopay is straightforward:

The motorist registers their vehicle, then their stay duration is tracked by ANPR like normal.
Then when it comes to leaving, they just get back in their car and head to their next destination.
The system bills them for their stay and sends them a text notification letting them know how much they’ve been charged.

It couldn’t be simpler.

Drivers get to control how they pay for their parking too, with the ability to have parking credit saved on their Autopay account, or just have their stay billed to their bank account directly.

No queues, no problem

Autopay means visitors to your site remove the whole process of paying for parking from their trip. No more queues to pay for parking, worrying about being unable to pay because of having the right change or being in a situation where they don’t have access to a bank card.

By eliminating a lot of the potential stress points from a trip, visitors can focus more on their planned activity instead of worrying about parking.

That’s a huge improvement to visitor experience which can put visitors in the right mindset to interact with your services, whether that’s enjoying their stay at an attraction or browsing a shop.

Then, at the end of their stay they just get to leave, no extra steps, just get back in the car and go.

How does Autopay improve your car park?

Your car park has a finite number of spaces, if each of those spaces represents one interaction with the rest of your business, then moving people in and out of them more efficiently should mean more space for more people to interact with your services.

Autopay makes that happen by completely removing queues, which means people can arrive and leave more efficiently.

That means a higher space turnover, more room for customers and visitors, and a greater potential to increase sales.

Streamlining how people interact with your car park also lessens the reliance on payment kiosks, which in an increasingly cashless society makes life much easier for visitors.

You also ensure that visitors are paying for the parking they use, giving them more flexibility, making your car park more convenient and increasing the likelihood that they will continue to use your site in future, meaning you generate more revenue.

Helping you to modernise your car park

The way the public interacts with businesses and their services is always changing and moving in new directions.

Your parking is no different and embracing change is an incredible way to help your car park achieve its true potential.
