Use case · Visitor Parking Income
The guest lot was never supposed to be free.
QR codes on the signs, timed passes guests buy from their phone, analytics by lot and month, and income shared with the owner. No gates, no app download, no paper passes at the desk. Pricing can start at $0 depending on setup, paired with a revenue share.
The problem
Free parking is a policy nobody chose.
Guest spots are a free-for-all, residents complain there's never one open and the office hands out paper passes nobody enforces. The lot is real estate the building pays for and never charges for.
What managers say
Three things managers say about the guest lot.
“We hand out paper passes at the desk.”
Guests scan the QR code on the sign and buy a timed pass at the platform checkout, with no app download.
“Residents can never find a spot.”
Resident spots, assignments and balances are managed in the portal, and plates are registered.
“We'd need gates to charge for it.”
No gates needed. The kit is QR codes and signage, and gates that already exist open from the app.

Deep dive
Built because one manager was done with paper passes.
ELEVATE Visitor Parking started as one customer's request from a manager tired of paper passes. Signs with QR codes, timed paid sessions and analytics in the portal turned the guest lot into a revenue line, and it now runs across the platform.
Gates
Gates optional. Revenue not.
The kit works on an open lot. Where gates and garage doors exist, they open from the resident app through every connected access control system, and visitor passes use the same access flow.

FAQ
Questions buyers ask on the first call.
What pass lengths can a guest buy?
An hour, four hours or overnight, depending on how the building sets the lot. Each pass is paid at the platform checkout.
Who sets visitor parking rates?
The property sets the rates for each paid lot. The building also decides which lots stay free.
Does a guest need to download an app to park?
No. Guests scan the QR code on the sign and pay without downloading anything.
What do visitor parking analytics show?
Sessions and earnings by lot and by month, in the portal. The owner's share is reported alongside every other income line.
Where did ELEVATE Visitor Parking come from?
It started as one customer's request from a manager tired of paper passes. It now runs as a revenue line across the platform.
Can enforcement tell paid guests from residents?
Yes. Residents and guests register license plates, and every paid pass is on record, so enforcement checks a list instead of a pad of paper passes.
How is visitor parking priced?
Pricing can start at $0 depending on setup, paired with a revenue share. Guests pay for the pass, and the owner shares in every one.
