The agreement covers 47 parking operators managing over 1,400 off-street gated car parks in Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Jonny Combe, Chief Executive Officer and President, PayByPhone, says, “This partnership with Scheidt & Bachmann significantly expands our gated off-street reach. It enables the best possible integration for our users via our AutoPay function, using the same app they already trust for on-street parking. Motorists will gain seamless access to an extensive network of car parks in each of these countries. Ultimately our goal is to build long-term partnerships that create smart, connected solutions for our drivers, simplifying every step of their journey”
To access AutoPay with PayByPhone, motorists simply need to opt in through the app before starting their journey. Once activated, they can enter and exit participating car parks without taking a ticket, visiting payment kiosks, or even opening the app.
Combe adds, “The global integration of this strategic agreement means we are able to activate a very large number of car parks at once. We are first launching in Germany with the other countries following in the coming months.”
Martin Bemba, Managing Director of Scheidt & Bachmann Parking Solutions GmbH, says, “We are excited to welcome PayByPhone into our mobility CONNECT ecosystem. This partnership is a significant step towards simplifying parking journeys globally, aligning with our vision to create seamless, connected mobility experiences for drivers. By combining PayByPhone’s trusted mobile payment expertise with our end-to-end parking technologies, we are enabling parking operators to offer even more convenience while supporting their digital transformation.”
