Challenge
Parking operators are being pulled into the charging business
Parking software providers and lot operators are under pressure from customers and property owners to add EV charging to their sites. Charging infrastructure gets installed, but managing it requires different tools, different expertise, and different vendor relationships than parking. Most operators end up running two parallel operations—one for parking, one for charging—with no integration between them.
Solution
Charging that fits into parking operations naturally
This unlocks the ability to offer EV charging as a seamless extension of parking services. Operators can manage chargers alongside parking infrastructure, unify payments and access control, and present a single experience to drivers and property owners. Charging becomes a parking amenity, not a separate business line to staff and manage.
Competencies
Unified access and payment across parking and charging
Drivers can access charging using the same credentials, apps, or payment methods they use for parking. Parking and charging fees can be bundled, split, or billed together based on operator preferences. One transaction, one experience, regardless of whether the driver parks or charges.

Charger management through existing parking workflows
Charger status, uptime, and faults flow into the same operational view as parking infrastructure. Site staff can monitor and respond to charging issues using familiar tools and processes. Charging doesn't require a separate NOC or specialized team.
2
Flexible pricing and policy control
Charging rates can be set based on time, energy, parking duration, or membership status. Policies can vary by site, lot, or customer segment without requiring charger-by-charger configuration. Operators retain control over how charging is priced and bundled with parking.

From Design to Operation
1
Operators connect installed chargers into their existing parking operations platform.
2
Payments, access, and policies are configured to align with parking workflows.
3
Drivers experience seamless parking and charging while operators manage both from one place.
IMPACT
Revenue and retention gains across the parking business
New Revenue Per Spot.
EV charging turns standard parking spaces into higher-yield assets. Each charging session adds incremental revenue on top of parking fees.
Stronger Customer Relationships.
Property owners and customers increasingly expect charging as part of parking. Operators who deliver integrated charging retain accounts that would otherwise look elsewhere.
Lower Operational Overhead
Managing charging through existing parking tools eliminates the need for separate dashboards, vendor contracts, and support processes. One team runs both operations.
Works With the Parking Systems Already in Place.
All of the parking management software, access control systems, and payment platforms already in use can be connected to a unified charging layer. Chargers from multiple vendors can be integrated without replacing existing parking infrastructure.
This commonly includes parking management platforms, license plate recognition systems, mobile payment apps, and access control hardware that operators already deploy across their sites.
