Mercedes-Benz announces In-Car Payment Feature for parking, powered by Mercedes Pay 💳 and Parkopedia 🅿️
A newly released in-car feature, available on any Mercedes-Benz vehicle in the US with the MBUX infotainment system and on-board navigation installed, allows drivers to identify available off-street parking facilities and reserve a parking space via the infotainment system. The system enables motorists to select check-in and check-out times, and view the total cost and confirm their booking, at which point drivers will be sent a QR code to scan when arriving at the car park to gain entry. Payment processing is then enabled automatically by Mercedes pay. Parkopedia, one of the leading parking service providers in the US, provides the location and parking facility data that helps enable this feature. This saves tedious maneuvering to retrieve the parking ticket as well as walking to the ticket machine 🙂
