Here’s how an access control system can help you create a stress-free, hands-on experience for your parkers with automatic entry and exit and online payments.

People tend to get stressed in parking lots. You’d be surprised to know that the National Institute of Justice reported that 7.3% of all violent crimes in the US take place in parking locations.

In fact, earlier this month, an accomplished pilot was caught on camera, destroying a barrier gate with an axe at an employee parking lot at Denver’s airport. If someone as patient and put-together as a commercial pilot can hit their breaking point at a parking lot, we can guess how tedious it must be sometimes to find the right spot and to have an easy, stress-free parking experience.

Make sure that’s never the case in your parking locations. With Get My Parking Solutions, you can make sure that your parkers are happy and stress-free.

We offer operators some of the most cost-effective ways to digitize and enhance their parking business. With our IoT GateKit, GMP Access, you can upgrade traditional parking lots and turn them into automated mobility hubs with streamlined and touchless parking.

If you’re a parking operator thinking about taking your parking business to the next level, then GMP Access can help you digitize and automate your parking lot – while keeping everything within your budget!

Here’s how an access control system can help you create a stress-free, hands-on experience for your parkers.

GMP’s IoT GateKit integrates seamlessly with existing parking hardware so that you don’t have to invest in brand-new equipment. With GMP Access, you can upgrade and automate legacy gates using off-the-shelf, Plug N Play components to provide free-flow, touchless access to parkers via LPR, RFID, QR, etc.

Create a white-labeled, cross-platform parking app at a fraction of the cost and time it takes to build it from scratch, customized to the T with their brand logo, colors, and theme. Parkers can use the app to navigate to the car park and manage their sessions online. With GMP App, customers can access and pay for all the consumer offerings from the operator via a single, easy-to-use platform.

Increase the accessibility of consumer offerings and offer lightning-fast, touchless payments using secure QR code technology. With GMP QR, setting up app-less parking in your locations is as easy as putting up a high-res QR code where parkers can see it. Scanning the QR code takes them to a custom web app where they can create and pay for sessions and other services.

With a complete picture of all parking data easily accessible on a centralized admin dashboard, the operator’s team can remotely track and control their operations. The parking lot can reduce the number of people required to operate it with automatic access and ticketing. Get custom reports on all the transactions and sessions across your portfolio with powerful reporting tools.

Operators can increase their revenue by entering into mutually beneficial partnerships with corporates and retailers with customized permits, discounts, and other parking privileges. Partners can manage and pay in bulk for the parking services used by their employees and visitors through a self-serve partner portal.

GMP solutions also offer on-demand API integrations through which parking lot owners can redirect consumers to websites and third-party apps through which they provide other hospitality services. With a pay-as-you-use, subscription-based model, operators can save resources that they can direct toward improving their business in other avenues.
