OpenSpot - Free Parking Platform

Pay-by-phone parking for streets and curbside.

Turn a block or a zone into paid parking without installing a single meter. Drivers scan, enter a plate and pay from where they are standing, and enforcement runs off the plate rather than a windshield.

Questions

The ones operators actually ask.

Pay-by-phone parking lets a driver pay for a curbside space from their own phone rather than at a meter: scanning a code or entering a zone number, paying, and extending remotely without walking back to the car. Enforcement checks the plate against a list of paid sessions instead of looking for a receipt on the dashboard.

A decal or a small sign per zone. No meters, no power, no groundwork and nothing to dig.

Everything paid is a plate in a list. An officer checks a plate from the web app and sees immediately whether there's a valid session, or cameras check every plate automatically.

Yes. Set different rates by time block, by day, or by zone. Drivers see the rate that applies when they park.

A pass tied to a zone. Residents buy it themselves and it renews, and enforcement checks the plate against active passes the same way it checks paid sessions.

Yes. That's most of the appeal from the driver's side, and it's why compliance tends to go up rather than down.

Paid parking without a machine on the pole.

A decal, a plate, and nothing to collect.
