Parking automation: plate-reading barriers and digital payment

Ticketless entry and exit, monthly parkers, partner validations and digital payment, with an occupancy dashboard. Shorter lines, less revenue leakage.

01The problem

Lines at the barrier, lost tickets, drivers leaving without paying and staff dedicated just to opening and closing the gate.

02How we solve it

Plate reading integrated with the barrier and a payment system (instant payments such as Pix in Brazil, card, monthly parkers), with an occupancy dashboard and reports. Works with hardware partners.

03How it works

01Entry02Account03Payment checked04Exit released
  1. Entry

    The camera reads the plate at the barrier and records the entry.

  2. Account

    The system identifies a monthly parker, a partner validation or a one-off customer.

  3. Payment checked

    Payment by instant transfer, card or app is checked before exit.

  4. Exit released

    The barrier opens without a ticket, and the dashboard updates occupancy and revenue.

The highlighted step is the check: anything that fails the rules goes back for review instead of moving on.

04What changes in practice

  • Shorter lines at the barrier. The plate is read and the car let through in seconds.

  • Less revenue leakage. Entry and exit recorded by plate, with no ticket to lose.

  • A leaner operation. Monthly parkers, validations and digital payment without a dedicated attendant.

05What you get

  • Plate reading integrated with the barrier
  • Monthly parkers and partner validations
  • Digital or app payment
  • Occupancy and revenue dashboard

What we measure

  • passage time
  • unpaid exits
  • operating cost

Metrics are agreed before we start. With the numbers in hand, you decide whether to move to production.

09Frequently asked questions

How much does a license plate recognition system for a parking lot cost?

Every project is quoted after a free assessment, based on scope, volume and the systems involved. You get a fixed-price proposal in writing before any work starts.

How long does it take to automate the barrier?

The pilot takes 4 to 8 weeks. Typical scope: one entrance and one exit.

Do you supply the barrier?

We work with hardware partners and integrate with barriers that are already installed.

What happens when a plate isn't read?

The car is let through by an attendant or by a fallback agreed in the project, and the case is logged so the camera can be adjusted.
