Park Place Parking and ParkMobile partner to offer smart Parking

ParkMobile, a provider of smart parking and mobility solutions in the US, will partner with Park Place Parking to allow customers to use their mobile devices to pay for parking. The service is available across 2,000 spaces at 20 lots across Columbus.

The ParkMobile app has replaced the previous mobile parking provider across all Park Place Parking lots. New stickers and signage will provide information to drivers on how to pay for parking using the new app. After setting up their account, customers can immediately begin using the system with their registered device.

Users can choose to upgrade for $0.99/month to the ParkMobile Pro membership which includes Parking Availability, a feature that shows where the open on-street parking spots are in immediate area. Additionally, membership comes with special offers on automotive related services like oil changes, rental cars and more.

ParkMobile is widely available in Columbus and surrounding areas in Ohio, including Cleveland, Athens, Bay Village, Cincinnati, Toledo and Lakewood. Additionally, ParkMobile will soon support Cleveland Browns parking at FirstEnergy Stadium.
