Interstate Parking Company expands mobile payment throughout the City of Milwaukee

Interstate Parking Company, Milwaukee’s premier locally owned and operated parking management firm, announced today that it would expand mobile parking payments to fourteen Milwaukee locations. The mobile pay service will provide parking customers with the ability to quickly and easily pay for parking from their mobile device. The expansion in Milwaukee builds on the existing mobile payment implementation at Minneapolis and St. Paul Interstate locations.

“We are pleased to be partnering with Passport to expand the mobile payment option to Milwaukee drivers,” said Tony Janowiec of Interstate Parking Company. “Mobile payment offers drivers incredible flexibility and convenience by eliminating the need to stop at the pay station or to rush back to their vehicles when they are running out of time. With Passport Mobile Pay, our customers can pay from the comfort of their vehicle, which is especially nice during inclement weather. We chose Passport’s technology because it is by far the industry’s most convenient, customer friendly, and intuitive.”

To utilize the new Passport service, customers must first register for free via the PassportParking app, mobile website, or calling the local toll-free number listed on Passport signage. Customers can even register with the push of a button using their public Facebook profile.

Once registered, customers can pay for parking by using the app, mobile website, or calling the local phone number. Passport Mobile Pay also provides customers the option to receive text message alerts and reminders prior to their time expiring.

“Interstate Parking Company is one of the most respected parking operators in the country and we are thrilled to be working with them to improve the parking experience in Milwaukee,” said Brandon Rivard, EVP of Passport. “Drivers will love the simplicity our mobile payment offers. We look forward to building our relationship with Interstate Parking Company and serving the Milwaukee community for many years to come.”
