Supermarkets & Stores

In a supermarket car park at a densely populated area or close to a surrounding payment car park.

Problem

How to avoid unwanted users without deterring potential customers?
How to associate a minimum purchase to free parking?
How do you ensure no one enters or leaves the car park without visiting the store?

Solution

NO WIRES - NO WIRELESS

Entry

Customers take a ticket at the entrance

POS Interface

Till generates a DAS exit barcode

Pay-On-Foot

Discounted rate for clients with exceeded stay

Exit

Scan ticket within validity time

Scenario

Customers take an entry ticket that is valid on the exit column(s) for a short predetermined time (in case the car park would be full). Customers then go to the store where the cashier scans their entry ticket at the till, along with the purchased products. Thanks to the SDK interface, the till determines automatically whether a parking amount is charged and then prints an exit barcode on the till receipt. Customers scan this till receipt at the exit within the validity time included in the barcode.

Comments

Install a pay-on-foot column and make your parking space profitable. Supermarket customers who choose to stay longer than allowed, scan their till receipt at the pay column and pay a reduced price. Others scan their entry ticket and pay the full rate. You can also distribute DAS parking tickets to the surrounding businesses in order to generate parking revenue through their customers.
