SmartPass has been an invaluable and cost-effective tool to significantly grow our parker volume at Oakland City Center. Our garage managers love it because it’s automated and hassle-free, and our parkers love it because we can create easy-to-use parking products customized to meet their needs.

ParkHub is a great technology partner that always comes up with the solutions the industry truly needs. When we started trying the SmartPass platform, we were not sure if the flexible parking concept would really catch on. Looking back now this was a great step ACE Parking took, and we look forward to expanding.
