Tenaga Car Parks Ltd., South Asia’s largest parking management company, having over 100 parking meters in Colombo, entered into an agreement with MegaPay Ltd. to enable pre-payment for parking.
MegaPay Ltd., operating under the brand name ‘Pay&Go’, provides a system for bill payments such as mobile and telephone bills, utility bills, cable TV bills, insurance premium, leasing rentals, donations, etc. and has just added on parking fees payment to their portfolio.
The agreement Tenaga has with Mega Pay gives commuters many choices and the ability to tailor their parking experience to fit their individual need and allows motorist to pay through MegaPay’s following channels:
Tenaga Car Parks Managing Director Duminda Jayatilake said, “Today, when you park your car you won’t need to carry cash with you. As technology progresses, there are readily available options for commuters and we at Tenaga invite you to make full use of the many options available. Our newest addition is MegaPay’s ‘Pay&Go’ system which we are delighted to offer all motorists.
MegaPay Ltd. Marketing and Business Development Manager Ushantha Samaraweera speaking at the launch of the collaboration said that mobile payment technology is taking over the transportation scene. “The partnership with Tenaga will allow MegaPay kiosks and online channels to accept both parking meter payments as well as fines, thereby simplifying and making convenient the parking meter payment.”
“Being at the forefront of behavioural change is MegaPay’s ethos and adopting the discipline of paying for parking is one of those trends that we are happy to be associated with,” Ushantha went on to note.
“When a motorist parks in a parking bay, the ticket could be obtained from the closest parking meter or pay at one of our kiosks. Additionally they can enter their vehicle number and make payment through their mobiles. Stuck in an interview in the city? No time to feed the meter? No worries,” added Samaraweera.
