ParkMobile launches in Richmond, Virginia, through a partnership with ParkHub’s CurbTrac Platform
ParkMobile will be available at all existing on-street zones in Richmond, Virginia, through its partnership with leading B2B parking technology provider, ParkHub. The designation includes servicing over 2,600 parking spaces.
“We are thrilled to add ParkMobile to the City of Richmond’s open parking marketplace managed by ParkHub’s centralized payment database, CurbTrac,” says Charley DeBow, SVP Business Development of ParkHub. “Now, visitors and residents can use the region’s most widely accepted contactless way to pay for parking around Richmond.”
ParkMobile has almost 35 million users across North America, is available for both iPhone and Android devices, or can also be accessed on a mobile web browser. To pay for parking using the mobile or web app, a user enters the zone number posted on signs around the parking spot, selects the amount of time needed, and touches the “Start Parking” button to begin the session. The user can also extend the time of the parking session on their mobile device.
“ParkMobile is excited to add on-street parking in Richmond, allowing customers to quickly and safely pay for parking throughout the city,” adds Jeff Perkins, CEO of ParkMobile. “We have a very strong presence in the DC/Virginia area, including an already popular off-street presence in Richmond, so we’re thrilled to add another city in that region to our roster.”
ParkMobile has a solid user base in Virginia with close to 1.4 million users. The app can also be found in Alexandria, Arlington, Charlottesville, and Leesburg. Beyond the state, ParkMobile is available in over 500 cities, including nearby Charlotte, Raleigh, and Washington, DC.
