LONDON, UK – JustPark, the UK’s leading parking app, is to become the official parking partner of The O2 in London. The new multi-year partnership is the first of its kind between an event operator and parking company in the UK. The aim is to deliver an industry-leading parking experience for The O2’s 10 million-plus annual visitors, with new solutions designed to enhance both accessibility and flexibility in booking parking at one of the world’s most popular venues. New research* that polled thousands of drivers on their experiences when driving to ticketed events nationwide, revealed that up to 87% of fans can be deterred from driving to occasions such as football matches, theatre performances or gigs. JustPark’s partnership with The O2 aims to ensure visitors to the London destination are not impacted by such concerns, delivering a flagship approach to event parking solutions for the UK. It also represents a major evolution of JustPark’s popular consumer app, expanding its support to venues and landmark event destinations. The research lays bare just how stressful finding event parking can be for drivers, and underscores the need for reliable and smarter parking options:  84% said parking stress has negatively impacted an event experience previously. Over half (56%) have left events early due to parking issues. 48% reported spending over 30 minutes searching for a space at a ticketed event. Anthony Eskinazi, Founder and President of JustPark said: “Parking for events should be simple and stress-free. Too often though, it’s the most frustrating part of the journey. JustPark’s technology changes that, making parking effortless, so visitors can focus on having a good time when they arrive.” “Partnering with The O2, the world's most popular live entertainment, leisure, and retail destination, is the perfect way to launch the new phase of our business and help destinations across the UK to modernise and bring parking in line with increased visitor expectations.” The collaboration reflects The O2’s commitment to ensuring every visitor has the best possible experience from the moment they arrive at the venue. JustPark will be introducing a range of new easy-to-use parking solutions for all The O2’s visitors, including daily and event specific reservable options and on-arrival, cashless parking. The O2 will benefit from JustPark technology and insights, helping them to make best use of their parking spaces in real time. "Parking and transport are essential parts of the visitor experience at The O2, and we are always looking for ways to improve accessibility and convenience for all our guests.” Said Nathan Kosky, VP Europe, Global Partnerships at AEG. "In partnering with JustPark and making full use of their customer-first technology, we are able to understand so much more about our visitors and integrate a range of different parking solutions that will make it easier than ever for attendees to drive, park and enjoy their visit.” In addition to improving the visitor journey, the partnership will elevate JustPark’s brand presence at The O2, reinforcing its role as a key supporter of the UK events industry. In April 2024, JustPark merged with ParkHub, the leading North American provider of event parking technology, which has since rebranded under the JustPark name. Today, JustPark operates at over 450 locations across the US, servicing 70% of US professional sports teams at some of its most trafficked venues, parking more than 40 million cars each year. Now, JustPark is applying that experience to revolutionise the UK event parking sector, ensuring fans can focus on the moments that matter with a frustration-free parking experience. *JustPark surveyed 3,100 drivers in April 2025 Solutions being introduced from JustPark to The O2 include: JustPark Reservations: Pre-booking will be offered to all visitors to The O2, meaning for the first time non-event visitors coming to shop at Outlet Shopping at The O2 or dine at the venue’s entertainment district can also reserve parking. EventPass: Event attendees can pre-book parking in advance through EventPass, a dynamic reservation platform that ensures guaranteed parking, eliminating stress. JustPark On-demand: For those arriving without a reservation, flexible, on-the-day parking, can be booked via the JustPark app. Overflow parking solutions: Should full capacity be reached in The O2 on-site parking, a seamless solution will enable visitors to quickly find and book nearby spaces available on the JustPark app. For more information, please contact:  Sarah Jackson  M: +44(0) 7306 256 148  E: media@justpark.com About JustPark   JustPark is reshaping the parking industry with faster, smarter solutions for drivers and destinations.

London, UK / Atlanta, US - Following the acquisition of Parkopedia by EasyPark Group and the expansion of the Group’s service portfolio, sister brand ParkMobile will launch as an eMobility Service Provider (eMSP) in North America. The EV charging service will be powered by Parkopedia, complementing ParkMobile’s existing parking platform and further enhancing its mobility offering. ParkMobile’s existing 65 million user base and market-leading smart parking and mobility platform will enable closer cooperation with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and fleet providers operating in North America to offer a seamless EV charging and payment experience via in-vehicle headunits and the ParkMobile app. The new eMSP will leverage Parkopedia’s extensive experience in EV charging services and market-leader position for global in-car payments to create immersive EV charging payment experiences and additional opportunities for CPOs, aggregators and MSPs. This move will also support the ability to orchestrate transactions in future, offering greater added value to both drivers and fleet managers, while enabling OEMs to provide desirable premium EV charging services to their customers. This new offering will create the most accurate and convenient eMSP in North America, enabling ParkMobile customers to use their pre-existing accounts to not only park but also charge - something which is becoming increasingly important as EV adoption accelerates around the world. Unique driver experiences will be facilitated by the combination of Parkopedia’s auto-grade data products and ParkMobile’s sophisticated payment functionality. Once live, fleet customers will benefit from being able to access new EV fleet capabilities from within their existing fleet management solution, ensuring greater convenience and efficiency. Benefits for consumers This new functionality will enable ParkMobile customers to pay for parking and charging via a single solution. Not only does this provide convenience to drivers, but it also helps drivers to find the cheapest available charging sessions, regardless of provider, via multi-contract plug and charge capabilities. Research shows that many drivers are frustrated by having to rely on multiple systems to access services and want convenient unified platforms, with 97% of US participants in the 2025 In-Car Payments User Experience Report stating that they would value being able to access multiple in-car payment services (eg. parking, fuelling/EV charging etc.) through one platform. Nearly all US participants (97%) also said that in-car payment functionality would improve their driving experience, showing that integrated connected car services are becoming a more important selling point for new car buyers. Benefits for fleet managers The new solution will seamlessly integrate into existing fleet management systems, offering businesses greater convenience and helping them to reduce their operational costs thanks to intelligent route optimization and improved vehicle utilization by enabling fleets to find and access the cheapest charging options across multiple MSPs and CPOs thanks to Parkopedia’s developed multi-contract Plug & Charge solution and tariff transparency. Not only does this enable better cost control, but it also reduces the complexity of invoice management by combining parking and charging costs into one invoice. It also ensures more efficient use of fleet vehicles, improving vehicle utilization by incorporating EV charging into daily route planning. This is particularly important as the cost of public charging can vary dramatically and the benefit of reduced fuelling costs by moving from ICE vehicles to EVs is only possible if fleets charge intelligently and avoid costly charging locations and providers - some of which can cost more to charge than an equivalent amount of gas would for an ICE vehicle. Meanwhile, fleet drivers will benefit from reduced time needed to find public chargers, thanks to accurate data, including real-time availability information. In addition, having access to this functionality through the head unit of the vehicle offers greater convenience to drivers, with the option for them to view this information on mobile devices, if desired. Highlighting the value of this new eMSP, Duncan Licence, Chief Product Officer, at Parkopedia, said: “This new eMSP service will offer significant value to drivers, fleets and OEMs, by combining the value of our extensive parking and charging data with in-car transactions and making this easily accessible to more than 65 million existing ParkMobile customers. We know drivers value being able to access their driving-related services in one platform, with confidence in utilizing the best available tariffs to charge, and in-car payments becoming increasingly demanded by drivers, with this new eMSP offering covering all this and more.” Scott Booker, General Manager of Parking at EasyPark Group, parent company of ParkMobile, stated: “ParkMobile is committed to expanding direct integrations with a growing network of CPOs to deliver a seamless, high-quality experience for drivers, fleets, and OEMs. The announcement of our new eMSP service represents a significant step forward in our ability to provide added value to our customers—particularly as EV adoption accelerates and demand for frictionless charging solutions continues to rise.” About Parkopedia Parkopedia, acquired by EasyPark Group in early 2025, is the leading connected car services provider used by automakers, organisations and millions of drivers around the world.

Charleston, SC – IP Parking has successfully completed the first phase installation of its Parking Access and Revenue Control System (PARCS) at Charleston International Airport (CHS), South Carolina’s largest and busiest airport. In 2024 alone, CHS welcomed a record-breaking 6,295,439 travelers, underscoring the need for seamless and efficient parking solutions. CHS serves as a key hub for both civilian and military aviation under a long-standing joint-use agreement with Joint Base Charleston and is home to Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner assembly facility. CHS serves millions of passengers annually—making efficient parking operations a priority. From contract signing to the first lane going live, the project moved at an impressive pace of just two months. Even more notably, the first parking area was installed within three days of IP Parking arriving on-site, demonstrating the efficiency and expertise behind the deployment. “This has been the best project and the easiest installation job I’ve been involved in during my 38 years in the business,” said John Robison, Director of Landside Operations at CHS. Minimizing Disruptions with a Streamlined Deployment Process A key factor in the project’s success was IP Parking’s strategic approach to installation, designed to minimize disruptions to airport operations. Before arriving on-site, IP Parking set up a fully functional test environment, ensuring that all hardware and software were operational and optimized. The plug-and-play nature of the equipment allowed for a smooth transition, as each component was pre-configured and ready to go. Additionally, careful coordination with CHS ensured that installation was phased and timed strategically to avoid interruptions during peak travel periods. IP Parking, working alongside their trusted installation partner, DMV Parking, executed an efficient and professional deployment, ensuring that CHS could maintain seamless parking operations while transitioning to a future-proof, high-performance PARCS solution. Robison noted the precision of the installation, stating, “When I’ve been out in the field observing operations, customers have consistently commented on how clean and professional the installation looks. Everything was done in a first-class way.” Future-Proof Technology for a Seamless Parking Experience With the new PARCS system in place, Charleston International Airport now benefits from IP Parking’s advanced IP2 Xperience terminals, deployed across 16 lanes, spanning two garages and two surface lots. These cutting-edge terminals feature customizable 15-inch touchscreens, providing an intuitive and user-friendly experience for travelers. CHS has also implemented IP Parking’s IP Payment System (IPS), a mobile, app-free payment solution that enhances driver convenience. Valuable real-time occupancy insights, delivered via API integration, enable CHS to optimize parking management and maximize facility utilization. Beyond providing state-of-the-art technology, IP Parking has delivered a system that gives CHS complete control over how they operate. Whether they choose a free-flow, ticketed, or ticketless parking model, the system allows them to adapt their operations at any time—tomorrow, next month, or years from now—without requiring a major system overhaul. Each facility can also operate independently, meaning garages and surface lots can run on different configurations seamlessly based on their specific needs. With IP Parking’s flexible, future-proof solution, CHS has the ability to adapt its parking operations as needs evolve, ensuring long-term scalability and efficiency. Lester Mascon, CCO of IP Parking, reflected on the collaboration, saying, “Working with CHS has been a fantastic experience, and we’re grateful to contribute to their continued success. Delivering a reliable, future-proof solution within such a short timeframe speaks to the strength of our team and technology. CHS now has a system that not only meets today’s demands but is also ready to grow with them.”  Robison further emphasized the impact of the system, stating, “Our customers love how easy the system is to use. We almost never get calls from customers needing help with the equipment. It’s been a great environment to be in.”  CHS sought a PARCS provider that would make parking easier and more convenient for customers while creating a seamless experience, and IP Parking delivered on that vision—offering a flexible, scalable system designed to meet the airport’s evolving needs. About IP Parking IP Parking, a family-owned business, has grown into the leading parking professional in the Benelux region and a dynamic international player with offices in Deurne (NL), Antwerp (BE), Los Angeles (US), Washington DC (US), Sydney (AUS) and Warsaw (PL), as well as dedicated development centers in Zaandam (NL) and Évora (PT).

London, UK - A new, first-of-its-kind report by Drive Research, focused on the full User Experience journey of in-car payment systems, shows that these services have become an extremely desirable convenience feature for many drivers who would be willing to pay for access to significantly improve their driving experience and brand perception. The 2025 In-Car Payments User Experience Report presented real-world drivers in the US and Germany with two in-car payment systems and tasked them with completing the same exercises on both, before answering quantitative and qualitative survey and interview questions, to gauge their level of interest in in-car payment functionality and opinions on the two formats. The first system (A) was an anonymized current in-production OEM system in each region, with the second system (B) being an updated setup created together by Parkopedia and Valtech Mobility, with ease-of-use improvements across enrollment, notifications, engagement and payment processes. Drivers want easy-to-use in-car payments for all driving-related services All American drivers surveyed stated that having an easy-to-use in-car payment system would improve their driving experience, with 100% also highly valuing this functionality in enabling in-car payments for driving-related services. Simple in-car payments were also near-universally valued by German participants (93%), demonstrating the wide-ranging demand for this functionality when it works as intended. Showing the potential benefit to OEMs from introducing well-executed in-car payments, 97% of participants in both the US and Germany would consider using in-car payments for all vehicle transactions, such as parking, EV charging, fueling and tolls, if the setup were easy to use. One German participant stated, “System B (updated) is definitely simpler, time-saving, self-explanatory, efficient, and an everyday helper.” The same proportion (97%) stated that in-car payment functionality would improve their driving experience and would value having multiple in-car payment services available through one platform, instead of requiring external devices to access. The consistency of these figures shows that drivers have a strongly-held interest in more sophisticated, connected car services and OEMs that offer seamlessly integrated in-car payments stand to win a growing proportion of customers from rival brands that fail to address this increasing demand. Demand for notifications when in-car payments are available Not only do drivers want broad in-car payment functionality, but they also want intelligent integration of the service to ensure they can get the greatest benefit from the features available. 93% of German drivers and 87% of US participants would value their car having the ability to notify them through the infotainment system when in-car payments are available nearby. Demonstrating drivers’ will for having additional in-car payment features built into their cars, 80% of US drivers would be ‘frustrated’ if in-car payments were available nearby and their car failed to inform them. Similarly, all German drivers surveyed and 97% of US motorists would value having an onscreen button to immediately access connected services nearby, such as parking and charging data or in-car payments. Poor enrollment process is limiting uptake and usage Drivers flagged that a complex registration process would reduce their likelihood of signing up for in-car payments, with 77 % of German drivers and 70% of US participants being put off by a complicated enrollment setup. More than this, 57% of Germans stated that a long-winded registration format would make them less likely to use in-car payments after registering, along with half of US drivers. This shows that the user experience has a very significant role in influencing drivers’ behavior and OEMs must optimize the registration process if they want to ensure the greatest customer satisfaction and adoption of premium services. 90% of US drivers considered the current industry standard registration process as being ‘complex’, highlighting that car manufacturers are already failing to meet many customers’ expectations. A significant proportion of drivers in both markets would be willing to pay a premium to access in-car payments, with more than two-thirds of drivers being open to paying for this functionality. More than half of German drivers would be willing to make a monthly payment for in-car payments, while nearly half of US participants would consider a higher initial price, showing OEMs the need to offer tailored payment options for this type of feature to maximize usage. Drivers demand integrated solutions over reliance on mobile devices Drivers saw integrated in-car payment services as valuable because they could respond appropriately to the situation or route, such as flagging the need for parking or charging, or helping to reduce the stresses associated with driving. Furthermore, several motorists considered such functionality to be a differentiator between rival brands. This could potentially influence purchase decisions - both pulling drivers towards models with high-quality in-car payment services and pushing them away from other OEMs that offer poor services or fail to provide these at all. Current deployments underrepresent the full capabilities of in-car payments Drivers significantly preferred the updated system shown, which prioritized usability, minimizing the amount of clicks needed to access key payment functions and making it simpler to pay for multiple vehicle-centric services using one platform. More than 90% of US drivers were extremely likely to use the updated system compared with just 20% for the current industry deployment. More than 90% of US and German drivers also engaged more with the optimized in-car payment system, with 100% of US and 90% of German participants being more likely to use in-car payments for future transactions if they had what they perceived to be the more ‘streamlined’ system. This shows that OEMs risk alienating their own customers by offering poorly executed in-car payments; drivers want convenient in-car payment functionality, but expect it to be user-friendly and are likely to be put off using such systems if they do not meet expectations. In-car payment execution affects drivers’ opinion of the brand Having well-integrated prompts for in-car payment services has a significant positive impact, with 97% of US drivers stating that this functionality would notably change their opinion of a car brand. More importantly, 87% of US drivers claimed that intelligent in-car payment integration would significantly increase their likelihood of buying a car from the same brand in future. Car manufacturers not currently offering in-car payments or providing poor-quality systems with frustrating user experiences could cause significant damage to their brands, potentially pushing their customers to rival brands that offer a more sophisticated digital user experience. Addressing this appears to be relatively straightforward, with all US and German drivers stating that they would be more likely to use in-car payments if the process were deemed easy to use and saved them time or money. Furthermore, 87% of US drivers and 63% of Germans would be dissuaded from using in-car payments if the system required multiple menu screens above what they deem necessary for confirming in-car payments. Commenting on the report results, Adam Calland, Global Marketing Director at Parkopedia, who overseen the focus group sessions, said: “The demand for connected car services continues to rise rapidly around the world, and this research shows that in-car payment functionality in particular is now becoming a must-have feature for motorists who highly value convenience and are willing to pay for this. “This is being accelerated by the global shift towards EVs, with motorists not only valuing having in-car data directing them to suitable charge points, but also integrating payments within the same platform, to facilitate the full public charging experience within the vehicle.

Transforming Unused Municipal Space through Collaboration

Charlotte, NC – Passport, the most trusted technology partner for innovative curb management solutions, is helping Florida cities manage the influx of spring break visitors and is revealing its parking and payment best practices. Last year, Florida saw a record-breaking 142.9 million visitors, with a significant portion traveling during the spring break season in March and April - more people can mean more problems with parking. “With Spring Break approaching, Florida is preparing for a record influx of visitors—and as someone who grew up here, I know firsthand how crucial this surge is to local economies,” said Khristian Gutierrez, co-founder and CEO of Passport. “But we also want to ensure local officials have the software resources to keep their communities functioning smoothly. As a trusted partner to cities across North America, we offer real-time insights and comprehensive parking compliance solutions that empower leaders to make informed decisions—both during peak demand and throughout the year—ultimately helping communities thrive.” Passport’s fully integrated curb management solution brings together parking enforcement, mobile pay parking, digital permitting, payments, and more. By centralizing parking data, Passport ensures cities can operate more efficiently, increase revenue, and improve the parking experience. In February 2025, the City of Tampa experienced a 57.5% increase in Passport Parking sessions compared to February 2024 and is preparing for more congestion in the month ahead. “The City of Tampa is focused on making our city fun for tourists and livable for our residents, even during high-volume times like spring break,” said Fed Revolte, City of Tampa Parking Division Manager. “With Passport, we have been able to access valuable data on what’s happening at the curb for the last few years so that we can better plan for managing parking turnover and compliance. It also allows us to provide an easy solution for parkers who want to pay from their phone.” In order to better manage parking during peak times, Passport suggests cities focus on these five best practices: Use clear signage: By providing clear and easily understandable parking signage, cities inform and update residents and visitors alike about parking regulations. Confusing or poorly placed signs can lead to unintentional violations. Make it mobile: Ensure you’re offering a mobile app to pay for parking and citations, and encourage parkers to download the right app to make life at the curb easier, while also expediting payments for citations. In 2024, 85% of all paid citations processed by Passport were resolved online. Over-communicate to consumers: Make sure they understand the citation and enforcement rules and next steps - including how they will receive notices. Most cities don’t send payment links via text message or request payment through unofficial channels. Dive into data: Explore years and months past to spot trends and stay ahead of challenges. Changing parking turnover during peak times can help alleviate congestion and ensure the city runs smoothly when it’s busy. Choose the right partner: Select a parking vendor that can bring all facets of curb management into one place to ease the burden for city officials and parkers alike. Passport's Partner Marketplace boasts over 60 integrations with technology partners and collaborates with regional providers and private operators like LAZ Parking and Metropolis SP+. Passport supports 800 cities and has processed more than $3.5B in curbside payments across paid citations, mobile payments, and parking permits. Passport data shows one in five Americans interacted with at least one of Passport’s products in 2024.
