MANAGE MONTHLY/RESIDENTIAL ACCOUNTS WITH AUTOMATIC MODE

Automatic Monthly Mode allows you to automatically bill and manage monthly parking account payments directly through the Flash Admin Portal. PARCS and Valet Monthly accounts can both utilize the Automatic Billing module. 

Residential accounts should only be provided Valet access credentials and never PARCS access credentials. 

With Automatic Monthly Mode enabled, you’ll be able to: 

• Send invoices via email to monthly or residential parking accounts on a set date.

• Set a date for automatic payments to charge credit cards on file each month.

• Allow monthly parkers to save a credit card on file for each month’s payment.

• Configure automatic late fees.

• Add miscellaneous one-time charges (for example prox card replacement fee).

• Use Master Accounts to link several monthly accounts to a single financial contact for billing purposes.

• Provide monthly parkers with their own Parker Portal to log in and manage their account details.
