Parking Pay Station

What Is a Parking Pay Station?

A parking pay station is a self-service payment terminal installed at a designated location where drivers can pay parking fees before returning to their vehicles.

This operating method is commonly called pay-on-foot parking. Pay stations are often installed in parking garages, shopping malls, airports and other facilities where centralized payment can reduce the need for payment at exit barriers.

Lean Kiosk manufactures customized parking pay stations with touchscreens, ticket scanners, payment modules and receipt printers.
