Multispace parking pay stations including payment improvements

This invention describes a parking pay station that allows customers who have already paid for parking using their phone to get a printed receipt. The pay station uses a sensor to read a unique code from the customer, then checks with a central system to confirm the mobile payment. Once verified, it prints a confirmation for the customer.

Why it matters: Since 2022, the standardization and availability of APIs for integrating diverse mobile payment platforms with central management systems have likely improved, simplifying the complex software integration required for this pay station.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
