Paying for Parking in Oceanside Just Got Easier

Vancouver, Canada – Paying for parking for residents and visitors in Oceanside, CA, has just gotten easier thanks to the simplicity of cashless parking. The City has partnered with PayByPhone, a global leader in mobile parking payments, to roll-out its services where paid parking is required involving more than 1,600 off-street parking lot stalls, with plans to implement toward on-street spaces in the future. Jessica Farrell, Parking Enforcement Supervisor, City of Oceanside, says, “We are delighted to offer residents and visitors to our beautiful City the secure, fast option of cashless parking for the first time. People no longer have to remember to have their bank cards, credit cards or cash to pay for parking, or to rush back to their vehicles to add more time to avoid getting a citation, or worse, cut short an enjoyable beach day because they don’t have any more money on hand. PayByPhone offers our residents and visitors great flexibility when they park. They can start and extend their parking sessions in a matter of seconds through the PayByPhone app, so they can fully enjoy vacation-mode for as long as they had planned when visiting some of our key attractions like the iconic Oceanside Pier, the Supergirl Pro Jam or any of the other fun events held on our beaches.” Parkers using PayByPhone also have access to the app’s Maps and the Nearby Parking features. The Maps feature allows them to locate parking before they leave for their destination and to pin their vehicle location onto the map once they have parked. The Nearby Parking feature instantly provides them with the closest PayByPhone parking location number. And the app is available in 14 languages, making it inclusive for the many tourists who visit the City. Carmen Donnell, Managing Director NA for PayByPhone, says, “We are thrilled to launch PayByPhone in the City of Oceanside. We are very happy PayByPhone is making the parking experience as hassle-free as possible for residents and visitors to this beautiful coastal area.

Ball Arena, Flash Launch Denver’s Largest Public EV Charging Hub

Ball Arena, in partnership with Flash, announced the launch of Denver’s single largest electric vehicle charging installation. The new public EV charging hub at Kroenke Sports & Entertainment’s home of the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, and Colorado Mammoth is up and running with 60 total charging ports now available to fans during games and events. “This EV charging hub and our partnership with Flash exemplifies our commitment to sustainability, enhancing the fan experience, and supporting our community,” said Matt Bell, Senior Vice President of Venue Operations at Ball Arena. “It represents the kinds of community amenities and infrastructure we envision for the area with our redevelopment plan and the sustainable mobility alternatives we need to support the parks, open space, and density the plan calls for.” Located in Ball Arena’s Camry South Lot, the new expansive charging hub represents a significant milestone for expanding Denver’s EV infrastructure. The installation comes as Colorado’s accelerating EV adoption broke records late last year, with 5,200 charging stations currently serving the state’s growing community of EV drivers. “As we re-imagine our existing surface parking lots to create a truly vibrant urban experience, initiatives like this charging hub show how we’re not only transforming individual lots, but also facilitating a connected downtown ecosystem that serves our fans and our broader Denver community,” Bell said. Starting this summer, the charging hub will serve both event attendees and the broader Denver community, with public access available during the 250 events Ball Arena typically hosts throughout the year. Over time, the hub will form part of Ball Arena’s broader development strategy to include enhanced community mobility, access to transit, a local shuttle system, and more and better pedestrian connections. Strategically located at Speer Boulevard and Auraria Parkway, with convenient access to Interstate 25 and nearby light rail service, the Arena is positioned at the intersection of several major connections through downtown Denver. “Denver is embracing the future of transportation, and Ball Arena is setting the standard for how entertainment venues can support that transition,” said Matt McCaffree, Vice President and General Manager at Flash. “Our partnership delivers a secure, reliable, and seamless charging experience that fans and community members will expect from one of Denver’s premier destinations.” The 60 Level 2 charging port hub is now operational and open for use to EV drivers. About Flash Flash is a pioneering technology company bringing seamless parking and EV charging experiences to drivers through a first-of-its-kind digital ecosystem. Flash’s platform connects reservable parking and charging in the apps drivers use every day with garage, surface lot, event, and valet parking locations – connected and controlled via a cloud-based operating system with unrivaled intelligence. Customer-obsessed brands partner with Flash to deliver digital, easy-to-use, reliable, and increasingly frictionless experiences to drivers eager to pay for a solution that eliminates wasted time, excess emissions, and stress.

The City of Pompano Beach Swaps Parking Meters for Trees

Vancouver, Canada – The City of Pompano Beach has signed up to Meters for Trees, the multi-award-winning tree planting initiative from PayByPhone, the global leader in mobile parking payments, effective immediately. Jeff Lantz, Parking Manager, the City of Pompano Beach, says, “Meters for Trees is a meaningful and easy way for us to move toward an eco-friendlier future by ensuring we are not only addressing air quality for our residents and visitors but also supporting our own environment through local tree planting.” PayByPhone, a parking payments provider for the City of Pompano Beach since 2021, across its nine on- and off-street parking locations, first launched Meters for Trees in the UK in 2019, as part of its broader environmental campaigns including Green December. These initiatives help forward-thinking cities, universities, and parking operators reduce their costly parking hardware as they opt for a mobile app-based parking service. Over the past five years, PayByPhone’s environmental campaigns have collectively planted over 225,000 trees globally. Under the terms of Meters for Trees, PayByPhone will plant one tree for every multi-space pay station and for every ten single space parking meters that are removed in the City of Pompano Beach, totaling 11 trees, in 2025. Trees will be planted in Withlacoochee State Forest, through PayByPhone’s partner, veritree, an organization that connects businesses with verified tree planting projects to elevate global reforestation. Meters for Trees supports the City of Pompano Beach in furthering its sustainability initiatives by removing parking hardware and planting trees while at the same time saving costs. By removing payment hardware and planting trees, CO₂ is absorbed by each newly planted tree as it grows, directly benefitting the local environment through carbon footprint reduction as CO₂ is sequestered from the atmosphere. Digital parking payments also eliminate the need for cash collection vehicles that would be emitting harmful tailpipe gasses as well as reduce costly compliance issues for the City with expensive card readers in the payment hardware. Carmen Donnell, Managing Director North America for PayByPhone, says, “We’re proud to work alongside partners like the City of Pompano Beach who share our vision of sustainability and environmental stewardship. In welcoming the City to our Meters for Trees campaign, we are making a meaningful step toward building a greener tomorrow.” Meters for Trees is a multi-award-winning initiative, having won 12 international awards, including a Global Gold Award at the 2019 Green World Environment Awards in the Carbon Reduction and Local Authorities categories, the Green Champion Award in Carbon Reduction at the 2019 Green Apple Environment Awards, and the Environmental Initiative Award at the 2020 SEAL Business Sustainability Awards. The City of Pompano joins The City of South Miami and The City of Coral Gables, Florida, The City of Olympia, Washington, and The City of Allentown, Pennsylvania, who joined Meters for Trees in 2025.

EasyPark, Flowbird, Parkopedia, RingGo, and ParkMobile reveal its new corporate parent company and brand “Arrive”, with the shared vision to make cities more livable.  A new era for urban mobility has arrived.

Arrive, the new company name, will replace EasyPark Group and Flowbird Group, and will be the overarching parent company for the consumer brands EasyPark, Flowbird, ParkMobile, Parkopedia, RingGo, Yellowbrick, YourParkingSpace and other brands within the organization. “I’m very excited to be able to celebrate the reveal of our company’s new name and brand Arrive,” said Cameron Clayton, CEO of Arrive. “Our exponential growth over the past 12 months, especially with the integration of Flowbird and Parkopedia, has dramatically expanded our scope of business and product offerings.

Vancouver, Canada – The City of South Miami, Florida, announces it has signed up to Meters for Trees, the multi-award-winning tree planting initiative from PayByPhone, the global leader in mobile parking payments. Alfredo Riverol, Chief Financial Officer, the City of South Miami, says, “Meters for Trees is a meaningful and easy way for us to move toward an eco-friendlier future. Since removing all parking hardware in the City and encouraging mobile parking payments, Meters for Trees now ensures we are not only addressing air quality for South Miami but also supporting our own environmental goals through local tree planting.” PayByPhone, one of the parking payments providers for the City of South Miami since 2011, across its 27 on- and off-street parking locations, first launched Meters for Trees in the UK in 2019, as part of its broader environmental campaigns including Green December.
