Smart Car Park Management in Kenya: M-Pesa, LPR and Live Occupancy
Modern parking operations can connect entry, exit, bay occupancy, payment and access devices instead of relying on manual gate logs.
The operational problem
A busy car park has to know who entered, how long they stayed, what they owe and whether the payment was received. Multi-site operators also need a clear view of available bays and revenue.
Connect software to parking hardware
A hardware-agnostic platform can connect licence-plate recognition, RFID, QR credentials, boom gates, occupancy sensors and kiosks through integration endpoints. This allows the software layer to evolve as hardware changes.
Kenyan payments and customer service
M-Pesa, cash and card transactions can be linked to parking sessions, while reservations, permits, SMS and WhatsApp notifications improve the customer experience.
