Application makes paying for parking easier

Greenville, N.C. (May 22, 2018) — E-Z Parking & Valet, in collaboration with Taft Family Ventures, announce the launch of the PassportParking® mobile application in its Greenville, N.C., parking lots, to make paying for parking more convenient. The app is powered by the global leader of mobile payments for parking and transit, Passport, serving parking operations throughout North America.

In addition to being able to pay for parking through the app, users are also able to:

• Extend their sessions remotely
• Keep track of all parking history
• Receive notifications
• Get email receipts

“We are proud to partner with another North Carolina-bred company, to bring a seamless app-based experience to uptown Greenville,” said Edward Meadows, Partner at E-Z Parking & Valet. “With hundreds of millions invested in our urban core [with private and public funds] over the past five years citizens now have a multitude of restaurants, breweries and other entertainment venues to choose from and the PassportParking app will enable them to park in a safe, regulated environment.”

“We are thrilled to bring our parking technology to Greenville in order to enable an easier parking payment experience for drivers,” said Passport Sales Director Kelsey Owens. “When using the PassportParking app drivers don’t have to worry about having to leave their meetings or restaurant tables to extend their parking sessions — they can do that right from our app.”

Drivers can download the free PassportParking app from the App Store and Google Play. Users can also manage their parking online at ppprk.com.
