App to Pay for Parking: Wirecard Supports sunhill technologies
ASCHHEIM, Germany, March 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
- Mobile phone parking tickets for more flexibility
- Tokenisation server ensures increased security
Payment expert Wirecard is supporting sunhill technologies GmbH in its expansion of
mobile ticketing services. From April this year, smartphone users can register their
payment details and park their vehicles using the sms&park (on-street parking) and
sms&exit 2.0 DF (off-street parking) apps to book and pay for parking. Currently, users
can choose to pay by credit card or SEPA direct debit. sunhill technologies apps are
already available in numerous towns and cities in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands
and with the benefit of Wirecard's payment channels, the company will be able to rapidly
expand into various other European countries.
For nearly a decade, sunhill technologies has been developing cashless payment methods
for mobile phones and, to this end, has been working with a number of leading mobile
technology companies. Up to now, payment has been made by mobile phone bill or prepaid
phone; however, the link to the Wirecard Checkout Page now makes cashless payment by app
and other payment channels possible.
As Matthias Mandelkow, CEO of sunhill technologies, says: "Parking by phone is
successfully establishing itself as a payment channel. The rapid rise in mobile phones
means that mobile payment is becoming even more important. Wirecard makes parking by
mobile phone even more flexible and internationally available for our customers."
Jan Rübel, Head of Sales Travel at Wirecard, explains: "Current developments in
consumer behaviour are tending towards the cashless society, and this has made it very
evident how important a good mobile customer experience is. sunhill technologies
identified this trend early on and we are delighted that we can support it with the
solutions we offer."
To use sunhill technologies smartphone apps, all the user has to do is download them
free of charge. By registering the car number plate on the app and then choosing the
parking space or car park, parking reservations can be made quickly and easily. Payment
can now be made either by the convenient Wirecard in-app payment function using the
registered credit card or by SEPA direct debit. Sensitive payment data is entered on the
secure payment page for storage on the PCI-compliant Wirecard tokenisation server. It is
even possible to extend parking time via the app. sunhill technologies will be presenting
its Wirecard-based solutions at Intertraffic, the leading trade fair for communications
and infrastructure, taking place in Amsterdam from 25 to 28 March 2014.
Visit Wirecard on stand 140 in hall 5.1 at the ITB fair in Berlin from 5 to 9 March
2014.
