Ticket-free parking, payment by number plate

Focus on operator cost efficiency and customer experience

Paperless parking is an efficient solution for both customer and operator Entry and exit with number plate identification is an environmentally friendly solution for both operator and user, an important consideration for a facility with thousands of vehicles entering daily

The advantage of the hybrid system is that tickets are issued automatically when a vehicle arrives with unidentified plates, ensuring uninterrupted access in all cases

The feature offers the operator a number of key advantages over a traditional ticket-based system

• Cost-effectiveness, as there is no ticketing
• Reduced ecological footprint, because there is no waste paper to print and then throw away
• Lower operating costs (consumables, staff, etc.)
• Faster boarding because there is no ticket request and ticket printing time
• Blacklist management

Customer experience components:

• No need to worry about losing your ticket, pay at the cash machine by entering your number plate
• Faster entry and exit with license plate identification.
• Easy entry and exit without having to pay at the cash machine.
• "Where I parked" function
• How the ticketless parking method works:

The extension and deep integration of the already widely used license plate recognition functions into the parking system enables ticket-free parking.

The driver stops in front of the entrance barrier, the system checks the status of the license plate, if it is valid, it opens immediately. If it is not valid, the system assigns a virtual ticket to the number plate and automatically enters it. At the same time, the number plate is displayed on the entrance terminal display. If the reliability of the number plate recognition is low, e.g. if the number plate is damaged or dirty, the access is granted by conventional ticketing.

At the end of the parking session, the parking fee is paid at the pay machine by presenting the number plate. If the customer is entitled to a discount at an internal service unit (e.g. cinema), a discount can be granted at the discount terminal staffed by the operator by presenting the registration number.

The customer experience on exit is the same as on entry.
