You Can Manage Your Parking Permits Online
Managing parking permits through paper forms, spreadsheets or manual records can take time and make it harder to keep information accurate. An online permit management system gives site operators one place to manage applications, approvals and active permits.
Digital permits can be used for residents, employees, visitors and other authorised users. Applications and permit details can be managed online, making the process simpler for both the people using the car park and the team responsible for managing it.
What Type of Business Can Use Digital Permits?
Online parking permit systems can be used across a range of parking environments, including:
- Residential developments and apartment buildings
- Office and workplace car parks
- Business premises
- Visitor parking areas
- Private managed car parks
- Multi-use developments
The system can be set up around the way your site operates, including different permit types, user groups and parking requirements. This makes it easier to keep track of who is authorised to park and which spaces or areas they can use.

Better Parking Control
A digital permit management system gives businesses and property managers a clearer view of authorised vehicles. Permit details can be updated when circumstances change, while records can be checked without relying on physical permits or separate spreadsheets.
Online permits can also work alongside ANPR parking systems and parking enforcement. This allows authorised vehicles to be identified more easily and gives operators better information when managing parking on busy or controlled sites.
By keeping permit information in one place, businesses can reduce unnecessary administration and make the parking process easier to manage. It also provides permit holders with a more convenient way to apply for, update and manage their parking permissions.

A digital parking permit is an electronic record that confirms a vehicle has permission to park in a particular private car park. Unlike a physical permit, the parking permission is managed digitally.
How do digital parking permits work?
Digital permits allow authorised vehicles to be registered against a private car park and its parking requirements. The relevant vehicle information can then be checked as part of the parking management process.
Can digital parking permits be used with ANPR?
Digital permits can be used alongside ANPR systems to help identify vehicles that are authorised to park. This can provide an additional way for businesses and landowners to manage parking permissions within a private car park.
