Vienna: using mobile phone to pay parking

Posted on 13-Oct-2003 11:57 | Filed under: News


Just one week after its introduction in Vienna on 1 October, m-parking has become the most popular m-commerce project in Austria. By Day 7, a total of 20,604 m-parking applications had been received, a milestone which had not been expected to be reached until April 2004.

The m-parking system, which is being financed by the City of Vienna and provided by equipment vendor Siemens and wireless operator Mobilkom Austria, allows users to pay for parking via their mobile handsets. Similar teleparking schemes have been successfully trialled in Singapore and Australia.
