Smart parking for cities & municipalities
Digitise on-street and municipal parking: pay-by-plate zones, resident permit schemes, digital enforcement, and transparent reporting, all without meters or proprietary hardware.
The problems municipalities actually have
On-street parking has to be cheap to run, fair to enforce and open to scrutiny, demands that ageing meters and paper permits were never built for. OPARKO is built around each one.
Ageing meters cost a fortune to run and maintain
No meters at all: paid parking runs on signs, QR codes and pay-by-phone across every zone, so there is no hardware to power, service, or replace.
Enforcement is inconsistent and gets disputed
A digital warden app captures photo evidence on every notice and runs each case through one consistent, defensible appeals workflow citywide.
Residents and businesses compete for scarce permits
Digital resident and business permit schemes with built-in eligibility checks and self-service applications keep allocation fair and transparent.
The public and auditors demand transparency
Auditable revenue, occupancy and enforcement data, exportable for council oversight and freedom-of-information requests.
Run your town's parking from one platform
From on-street tariff zones to resident permit schemes and digital enforcement, OPARKO gives municipalities one auditable platform, no meters, no lock-in.
Sign-based pay-by-plate zones
Roll out paid zones with a sign and a QR code, no meters to buy, power, or maintain. Drivers pay by plate in seconds.
Pay by phone & app
Residents and visitors pay from any phone. No coins, no app download required, and full coverage across every zone.
Digital enforcement
Wardens enforce from a mobile app with photo evidence and a full appeals workflow, defensible and consistent across the city.
Resident & business permits
Run resident and trade permit schemes digitally. Eligibility checks, self-service applications, and automatic renewals.
Citywide zone & tariff control
Set tariffs, time limits, and rules per zone or per street. Change them centrally and they take effect immediately.
Transparent public reporting
Auditable revenue, occupancy, and enforcement data for council oversight, FOI requests, and public accountability.
How your municipality goes live
A staged rollout with no groundworks and no meter procurement, from mapping your zones to going live and reporting.
Map your zones
We map your streets and areas together and agree tariffs, time limits, and permit rules for each zone.
Put up the signs
Zone signs with QR codes go up and the rules are configured in the platform. No meters, no cabling, no groundworks.
Migrate permits
Existing resident and business permit holders are imported, and online self-service applications open.
Onboard wardens
Enforcement staff are trained on the mobile app, with photo evidence and the appeals workflow set up.
Go live & report
Zones go live, drivers pay by phone, and you track revenue, occupancy, and compliance in real time.
Everything you need in one platform
Questions from municipalities
Do we need to install or maintain meters?
No. OPARKO runs on signs and QR codes, so there is no meter hardware to buy, power, or repair. Drivers pay by plate from any phone, which removes cash handling and vandalism from your operation.
How do residents and visitors pay?
They scan a QR code on the zone sign or pay by phone in the browser, no app download and no account required. Residents and businesses manage permits through online self-service.
Is enforcement legally defensible?
Yes. Wardens work from a mobile app that captures photo evidence and a timestamped record for every notice, and every case runs through a consistent appeals workflow that stands up to scrutiny.
Who owns the data, and where is it stored?
You do. OPARKO is GDPR-compliant by design with all data hosted in the EU, and reporting is exportable for council oversight, audits, and freedom-of-information requests.
Are we locked into proprietary hardware or a single vendor?
No. There is no proprietary hardware to commit to, and drivers can pay through the apps they already use as well as our own channels, so you keep the flexibility to change how you operate.
Bringing your municipality's parking into the digital age?
We work with municipalities and public-sector operators to digitise on-street parking without meters or vendor lock-in.
