Parking at the Port of Palma can now be paid for using mobile phones

The mobile payment service for the car parks of the APB at the Port of Palma has today come into operation. Users will be able to pay through the application of the payment platform called Telpark, available for smartphones, on which the port area can be found.
The launch of this system responds to a petition made by Palma City Council to integrate the port area into the limited parking area of the city, which already uses this new payment method. Users can easily pay using their mobile phones by following a few simple steps.
- Install the app
- Select the city (geolocation)
- Choose the rate, selecting the area
- Enter the parking duration
- Make the payment
Furthermore, the system allows users to receive alerts notifying them when their parking time is about to or has run out. Fines cannot currently be annulled on mobile devices and they need to be processed in the usual way. However, it is envisaged that this process will be available via telematic means in the near future.
Furthermore, the agents of the APB who control the regulated car park have tablets and an application that lets them check, through registration plates, that vehicles that have paid through Telpark and that do not have a ticket on the dashboard have paid correctly.
