T2 Systems Integrates Gold-Standard Credit Card Payment Encryption Into Its Parking Access and Revenue Control Systems for Secure, Faster, Contactless Parking

Indianapolis, IN — T2 Systems, a parking technology leader, announced that T2 PARCS (Parking Access and Revenue Control System) now supports the ID TECH VP6825 PCI P2PE (Payment Card Industry Point-to-Point Encryption) Validated Payment Solution. T2’s PARCS solution is powered by T2 Flex®, the industry-leading permit management and enforcement software platform. Flex is a highly configurable permit management tool that provides streamlined enforcement and citation management, access to real-time data and a suite of standard and customizable reports. Flex includes advanced PARCS capabilities for a unified parking management platform. Integrating the new ID TECH PCI P2PE solution with T2 PARCS delivers end-to-end encryption, faster processing speeds and mobile payment options like Google Pay® and Apple Pay®, enabling parking operators to process transactions more securely and efficiently while simplifying PCI compliance and protecting their future revenue systems. Considered the industry gold standard, PCI P2PE encrypts sensitive credit card data from the point of payment until it is decrypted by the service provider, significantly reducing the scope of a business’s PCI compliance. The new solution supports contactless, chip and magstripe payments. “Integrating ID TECH’s validated PCI P2PE trusted payment technology with T2 PARCS protects every tap, dip and swipe to future-proof parking operations with trusted payment technology,” said Matt Howard, Vice President, Product, T2 Systems. “Operators can move vehicles through lanes faster, reduce compliance overhead and offer the seamless payment experiences their parkers expect.” Proven customer success The Lancaster Parking Authority (LPA) in Lancaster, PA, recently consolidated four different PARC vendors’ systems across seven garages into one T2 PARCS solution with T2 Flex® for permit and enforcement for monthly parkers and off-street violations. LPA benefits from having a single parking technology vendor for off-street parking: one vendor, one account manager and streamlined processes. “Since implementing T2 PARCS with ID TECH’s encrypted PCI P2PE solution, we’ve seen a dramatic improvement in security and efficiency,” said Ibrahim Aman, Deputy Executive Director of LPA. “Processing over 165,000 transactions in just a few months with faster throughput and seamless reconciliation proves that our parkers trust this solution and gives us a future-proof investment for tomorrow’s parking requirements.” With T2, LPA efficiently oversees a parking inventory of approximately 1,200 on-street spaces, seven off-street garages with approximately 4,500 spaces, four lots with about 190 and about 1,000 metered spaces. Key benefits for parking operators Security That Scales: PCI P2PE v3.1 validation delivers the highest level of payment protection and simplifies compliance. Frictionless Operations: Faster processing speeds reduce congestion; robust offline capabilities keep lanes moving even during network interruptions; automated API reconciliation streamlines back-office workflows. Modern Payment Choice: Supports Apple Pay, Google Pay, EMV chip + PIN, magstripe, barcodes/QR, and open/closed loop cards, all with contactless-first functionality and extended read range. Future-Ready Investment: Outdoor-rated Level 6 EMV P2PE hardware supported until April 30, 2032.

The Public Service Shift – from Parks & Rec to Parking

Like so many others in the industry, my parking career began as a backup option. Having worked as a part-time supervisor while an undergraduate with Virginia Beach Parks & Recreation, followed by a stint with Raleigh NC Parks & Recreation after graduating with a degree in geography, I felt ready to take on any Park Management or Planner position in the southeast or mid-Atlantic. But the opportunity didn’t surface, and the monthly student loan payment couldn’t pay itself, so I took a parking facility management position with a private operator. That holiday season as a newly employed manager in the workforce I recall connecting with a college friend at a holiday party and seeing the confusion on his face when I mentioned the original goal of working in Parks & Rec yet embracing the opportunity in Parking. His response? “One is fun, one is not. So how long do you plan to stick around?” Down the road a few years later in a different parking role and city, I reflected on my work experience while also envisioning career growth and whether the Parks & Rec field remained a goal. I had a conversation with my previous supervisor in this role and she provided memorable input, to this effect of “parking may not be glamorous however there’s room for advancement and opportunities to be creative in this industry, and if you put in the time and dedication you will carve a serious niche”. Then I reflected on the parallels with Parks & serving the public and maintaining customer satisfaction, keeping facilities pristine, managing spaces, and partnering with other departments/organizations, among others. Do I regret my decision to remain in parking? Most days, no. I’ll also take dealing with periodic frustrated parkers over the daily animated skateboarding and dog park patrons any day of the week!

The Largest Building in Wisconsin Might Surprise You

When you think of the largest buildings in any city, your mind probably goes to soaring skyscrapers, massive stadiums, or sprawling airports. But in Wisconsin, the largest building by square footage isn’t a tower or arena—it’s actually the Parking Garage at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport. This six-story, 8,000-space post-tensioned (P/T) structure was built in three phases. The Red Section, closest to the terminal, was originally constructed in 1977. A 1989 expansion, known as the Blue Section, added 126,000 square feet per floor along the western edge, and a 2002 expansion, the Yellow Section, extended the garage along the northern side, adding another 209,000 square feet per floor. Altogether, the garage covers more than 3.5 million square feet, making it the largest building—by square footage—in the entire state of Wisconsin. For comparison: U.S Bank Center (Milwaukee): Tallest building in Wisconsin – 42 stories, 1,077,607 sq ft Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons (Milwaukee): 32 stories, 1,100,00 sq ft Clinical Services Center at University of Wisconsin-Madison: 1,897,439 sq ft Lambeau Field (Green Bay): 1,900,000 sq ft During these expansions, a total of six elevators were added: two in the 1989 section and four more in the 2002 expansion. The 2002 project also introduced an enclosed pedestrian skywalk on the third level, featuring two sets of moving walkways. This climate-controlled corridor connects the garage to the terminal, offering comfort and convenience for travelers during Wisconsin’s hot summers and frigid winters. For most of the year—aside from peak travel periods like Spring Break—this massive structure has ample capacity to accommodate nearly all travelers who choose to park there. So next time you’re planning to park at MKE, choose the garage and take a moment to look around and appreciate the sheer scale of this remarkable facility. You can proudly say, “I’m standing in the largest building in Wisconsin!” Vincent Campagna, PTMP, is a Manager, Parking & Ground Transportation for Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport.
