Season parking allows the car owner to park his/her car regularly, near his/her home or workplace, at a fixed and always discounted monthly rate. Even at a discounted rate, season parking income is steadier than casual parking. Season parking as part of the parking management system is always considered less challenging than casual parking.
In fact, in terms of daily operation, yes, season parking would pose a lesser problem because season parkers are “known” customers, easier to manage, and casual parkers are random; anything can happen. But in terms of the system, season parking is far more complicated. Because of the “known” user and a special discount provided, it kind of becomes a member. Hence, the season parking system is also a sort of ‘membership’ system; it has an application form, issuance of a special pass, deposit collection, monthly payment, overdue payment, ‘membership’ renewal, and termination. Besides individual ‘members’, it has group ‘members’, and their company pays their monthly ‘membership’ fees. And to add to the complication, it may have different types of ‘membership’, different parking rates, either with a dedicated or non-dedicated parking lot. Some parking sites even have nested parking areas for season parkers.
None of the above matters for the casual parkers; just set the parking rate; it applies to all.
As TimeTec Parking Management System is a cloud-based system and App-enabled, it provides more features for season parking such as interactive capability likes payment reminders, online application, online payment, renewal, etc. It supports RFID cards, TNG cards, QR codes, and License Plate Recognition (LPR) for season parking access. When a parking site uses a QR code or LPR as season parking access, it can save the card issuance, and all administrative processes can be done over the internet.
