Get My Parking: Here’s Why You Should Have App-Less Parking in Your Locations

Most operators these days are turning to parking apps to cater to this demand. But parking apps don’t cater to every demographic out there - visitors and passersby may not want to download a dedicated parking app. It’s easier to have a quick payment system as an option in your locations so that your walk-ins can have a hassle-free parking experience.

QR-based payment systems allow parkers to enjoy all the perks of quick, smart parking without a lengthy registration process. With solutions like GMP QR, parkers can scan, park and pay from the convenience of their phone browsers.

Here's why switching to app-less, QR-based parking can boost your business:

Quick and Cashless 

A long queue of frustrated drivers waiting to pay for parking can quickly escalate into a heated feud. A lightning-fast, user-friendly QR payment system can help you avoid it.

Easy to Set Up

A QR payment solution eliminates the need for ticket kiosks or parking apps. It's also really easy to set up - just place the QR code conveniently around the parking lot in areas with the most foot traffic.This way customers can scan the code and pay on the go.

Increased Revenue

Setting up a quick and comfortable parking experience will help you attract new customers while maintaining brand loyalty with existing users. QR payment solutions help you create a strong customer base of transient parkers, resulting in increased revenue.

Budget-friendly

Since parkers can pay online without human assistance, parking lots will require less manpower to operate, which will help them cut costs. QR codes also optimize payment collection by eliminating the risk attached to cash payments, like encountering counterfeit currency, accidental short-changing, etc.

Increased Website/App Traffic

If you have a website or app that facilitates online bookings or lists the terms and conditions of your location, you can easily divert traffic to it with a QR code. A website URL or app store QR code will redirect customers to these platforms with a simple scan. They can use this to pre-book a parking space or extend their session.

The Future of Qr Codes in Parking

From receiving payments to promoting their products, all kinds of businesses are adopting QR codes. As parking lot owners have shifted their focus from physical tickets to apps, the trend is now moving towards QR-based payments.

With QR codes, parking lot owners can easily streamline their services and increase revenue while providing a satisfying experience to their transient parkers.
