Guest parking for BC strata

Guest parking that runs itself.

Residents issue passes from their phone. Patrol checks a plate in a second. The council sees every pass, scan and fine in one place.

The problem

A guest pass is a small thing. Until a car sits in visitor parking and nobody can say whether it should be there. Until a resident gets a fine they don't understand, and the council spends its meeting arguing about it. SmartPark makes the answer instant, and the process fair.

For residents

A pass for any guest in a tap, and always knowing how long they have left.

For patrol

A plate checked in a second, even three levels underground with no signal.

For council

Every notice reviewed with its evidence. Nothing charged until you confirm it.

One pass, start to finish

01  /  Resident · 8:02 AM

A tap at breakfast.

Priya taps Marcus in her favourites. His plate and number are already saved, so the pass is issued and texted to him before her coffee's ready.

02  /  Guest · 8:03 AM

A text, not an app.

Marcus gets a link. It shows how long he has, where to park and how to get in, and it counts down so he never has to guess.

03  /  Patrol · 11:48 PM

A second, not a search.

Carlos points his phone at a plate. Valid, expiring, expired, resident or no pass — even with no signal three levels down.

04  /  Council · Next morning

A decision, not an argument.

Every notice reaches the council with its photos and history. Confirm it, or waive it with a reason. The resident is told either way.

05  /  Council · Any time

The whole building, at a glance.

Every pass, scan and decision from this story lands on the council's Overview: today's patrol, passes running now, notices to review and what's been collected this month.

The council's Overview in SmartPark: last patrol, active passes, violations to review, this month's revenue, the building notice and tasks.

For strata councils & property managers

Your building. Your rules.

Set it up once and SmartPark runs it: the passes, the notices, the payments and the paperwork. You make the decisions. Try it.

Try it: confirm or waive a notice. Each one is its own decision, so there's no "confirm all". Waiving several at once is fine.

By the numbers

Small numbers, on purpose.

0tap

to issue a pass to a guest you've saved.

0apps

for your guests to download. Their pass arrives by text.

0min

or less left on a pass, and patrol sees it as expiring.

0% off

for residents who settle a notice early, if your building turns it on.

Who it's for

Everyone who touches the parkade.

Four people, four very different days. One record behind all of them, so nobody has to ask anyone else what happened.

Residents

Your guests, sorted before they arrive.

Favourites for the people who visit most, a live countdown for everyone parked, and your building's allowance always in view.

  • Tap a face to issue a pass. Plate and phone already saved.
  • Extend by an hour in one tap when dinner runs late.
  • Know what's left this month before you need it.
The SmartPark resident home screen.

Guests

Nothing to download. Nothing to sign up for.

A text with a link. It shows the time left, where to park, how to get in and directions — and a code to show security if anyone asks.

  • Your building's instructions, word for word, with every pass.
  • A countdown they can trust, so nobody overstays by accident.
  • Private by default. The link never shows the guest's name or number.

Patrol

Built for a parkade at midnight.

Dark by default, one-handed, with big targets. Every reading can be corrected, and a fine is never the only button.

  • Works with no signal. The building's passes are kept on the phone.
  • Notify or note instead, when a fine isn't the right call.
  • Photos as evidence, stored privately and never editable.

Council & property managers

Every pass, scan and fine, on one screen.

You set the rules and you make the calls. SmartPark keeps the record and does the paperwork.

  • Review every notice with its photos and history.
  • Your rules: pass limits, fine amounts, discounts, parking areas.
  • Reports for the AGM: revenue, outstanding fines, pass use.

Fair by design

Enforcement your residents can trust.

A fine is somebody's money and a strata decision. SmartPark is built so the easy path is also the fair one.

01

Every reading can be corrected

The officer always sees what the camera read and can fix it. A low-confidence read says so.

02

A fine is never the only option

Officers can notify the resident or add a note instead. Not every problem needs a fine.

03

No photo, no fine

Every fine carries its evidence. The resident sees exactly what the council sees.

04

A formal notice, done properly

Residents get written notice under the Strata Property Act, with time to respond or ask for a hearing.

05

The council has the final say

A resident is only charged once the council confirms a notice, unless they choose to pay early.

06

A reward for settling early

If your building turns it on, residents who agree with a notice can pay less in the first few days.

Pricing
