Parkmobile LLC, a provider of on-demand and prepaid mobile payments for on and off-street parking, will be the latest company to join the Atlanta’s growing technology sector, Mayor Kasim Reed announced recently.
The company’s mobile technology provides a convenient way to pay for parking and offers alerts prior to the expiration of a parking session.
“Businesses are voting with their feet and choosing the city of Atlanta every day,” said Mayor Reed. “We are proud to welcome Parkmobile to Atlanta, where our strong pool of talented tech workers and support for the technology sector have created a thriving environment for entrepreneurs.”
The Company provides services to more than 1,400 locations around the U.S. In Atlanta, its technology provides payment options for 11,000 privately managed on-street parking spaces.
The company is adding news cities to its portfolio on a monthly basis and introduced three new municipalities in May including Philadelphia, Charlotte and Ridgewood, NJ.
“Atlanta is now our “flagship” location and the goal is to make it a model for mobility technology around the world,” said Cherie Fuzzell, CEO of Parkmobile. “By expanding our strategic partnerships and deployments across the globe we will continue to raise metro Atlanta’s brand, while leveraging its technology savvy workforce to build a company whose employees will enjoy a quality of life that is among the best of any U.S. City.”
