T2 Flex 7.6 release overview

Key benefits

Streamlined PermitNow Online Event Sales

Give your customers a faster way to purchase parking for events and improve your event parking operations. PermitNow Online Event Sales will now provide an improved online experience for your customers, with a streamlined 3-step process and Guest Checkout functionality.

An improved online experience encourages more customers to buy their parking online before the events. More parking sold online improves event day forecasting, saves staff time during ingress and ultimately increases your event parking revenue. And with Guest Checkout functionality for event parking, customers will be able to bypass creating a profile to save time and your Flex database will have fewer onetime-only customers.

Credit Card In / Credit Card Out (CCIO)

Encourage more customers to pay with a credit card and reduce the amount of customers with lost tickets using Credit Card In / Credit Card Out (CCIO) in your PARCS facilities. CCIO lets your customers enter and exit a gated facility using a credit card instead of pulling a ticket; and when they leave, they pay the appropriate fee using that same credit card or an alternate method of payment. This solution is fully PCI-compliant as it doesn’t store any sensitive cardholder information in the database. Reduce your cash handling, and reduce chances of leakage or fraud with increased credit card usage. All while speeding up ingress and egress at your facilities.

Ticket Tracking & Auditing

Get enhanced reporting for your PARCS facilities from Flex with Ticket Tracking and Auditing. With this new functionality, we’re making it easier for you to find out the “who, what, when, how long” and transaction details of your PARCS facilities. New standard widgets are included to give quick snapshots of these details. Access the information more easily and generate intelligent data for budgeting and parking policy decisions for your operation.

Support for Central Pay-On-Foot (POF) Stations

Does your facilities layout lend itself to a central POF station for multiple parking facilities? Provide your customers the convenience of paying for parking in one centrally-located POF station and reduce your system cost by supporting multiple facilities with the same POF station.

New User Interface for Occupancy/Pricing Schedules

Save time with the revamped Occupancy and Transient Pricing Schedules setup process. See your information and make changes in one step via a streamlined user interface. Set these schedules in an easier way, and attach them to other facilities faster.
