Express Pay: Parkonect Operating Modes

Modified on Mon, 2 Mar at 12:42 AM

PARKONECT OPERATING MODE OPTIONS


As the parking industry moves toward a more seamless driver experience, many customers are seeking gateless solutions that don’t compromise revenue. While some providers remove gates entirely and rely solely on enforcement, Flash offers a more flexible approach. With adjustable gate operating modes and the convenience of Express Pay, you can streamline the driver experience while keeping gates in place to ensure secure, reliable revenue collection. Express Pay allows drivers to pay quickly and exit smoothly, enhancing efficiency without compromising control.



Hybrid Gated Mode is currently only available with Parkonect systems. 


Operating Modes


Full Control Mode

Hybrid Gated Mode


The flexible Operating Modes allow operators to control access, leakage, and security with adaptable modes.

 

  • Operating Modes are set in the Parkonect Admin portal (under Garage Settings) to control the gates' up/down logic for the garage. 
  • The operating mode can be set manually or on an automatic schedule.



The gates will remain in a down position for each mode. In Hybrid Gated Mode the gate will auto vend for all drivers based on a successful LPR license plate capture. 



Full Control Mode 

In Full Control mode, the gates remain down, ensuring there is no compromise on security and all revenue is captured with the gates down during both entry and exit. This mode requires drivers to interact with the kiosk if they are not a registered Express Pay user. Users are not required to use Express Pay for payment and can continue to use an exit kiosk or POF to complete payment.  



Hybrid Gated Mode

Hybrid mode offers a seamless experience at entry, which enables rapid driver intake while still ensuring revenue capture with gates down on exit. The gate will auto-vend on entry for all drivers once LPR captures a successful plate read. The exit gate remains down, and the amount due is presented on the Exit kiosk screen if the user did not use Express Pay for payment.
