Solution Provides Quick and Easy Payment Processing at Parking Meters
"PPI was able to provide us with a real-time solution that allowed us to process credit card transactions at the multi-space parking meter without the need for telephone or DSL access, management of black lists at the machine, or manual processing of credit card batch data at the end of the day," said John MacKay, MacKay Meters CEO. "The solution is solar powered and utilizes cell-phone technology to easily incorporate payment processing into our applications. PPI has exceeded our expectations by allowing us to offer our clients a highly secure, fully supported, credit card payment solution in our machines that will save our clients time and money and provide additional convenience to customers."
The PPI gateway integration provides MacKay Meters with technology to ensure that all transactions are Payment Card Industry (PCI) Compliant and provides all necessary data encryption requirements. This credit card payment solution is being implemented in multi-space parking meters across the US and Canada.
"Integrated payment processing for the parking meter industry is a growing opportunity for PPI and we are excited to work with MacKay Meters," said Peter Smith, director of client partner development at PPI.
