The initial situation

The Forettle Center, a popular shopping center, suffered from declining visitor numbers and dissatisfied customers, as third-party parkers used the 90-minute free parking period to go into the city center. Real customers from shops and gyms were often unable to find a free parking space. A solution had to be found to avoid third-party parking and secure parking spaces for center customers - without a barrier system that would have caused traffic jams on the busy street.

The solution

With Wemolo, the Forettle Center was able to increase customer satisfaction and use the parking spaces profitably. The innovative, camera-based solution without barriers enables efficient utilization control and a relaxed shopping experience without traffic jams.

Barrier-free parking monitoring:
Four cameras reliably record vehicles entering and exiting and ensure smooth control. This prevents traffic jams and creates a stress-free parking and shopping experience.

Flexible free parking regulation:
The previous flat-rate free parking time has been replaced by a targeted regulation. Retail customers receive 90 minutes of free parking time via QR code flyers, while gym visitors can conveniently unlock their parking space at a terminal in the gym. Third-party parkers pay to use the parking spaces, which generates additional income for the center.

Modern payment options:
The machines offer a variety of payment options - cash, card or online up to 24 hours after exit. With QR codes, customers also receive discounts on parking fees and benefit when shopping in the center.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the installation of the Wemolo system cost?

The cost of installing the digital system varies depending on the site-specific conditions of the parking lot and its size. We will be happy to advise you in an initial non-binding consultation to develop a customized solution for your parking lot and provide you with an initial cost estimate. Please contact us and our parking experts will get back to you as soon as possible.

Do I buy the hardware?

The hardware required for parking space management remains the property of Wemolo GmbH for the duration of the contract and is therefore not purchased by you. Wemolo is responsible for the reliable operation of the hardware.

What requirements must the parking space meet?

Wemolo can find a solution for almost any parking space. In a non-binding consultation, we will be happy to show you what needs to be considered in your parking area. In principle, clearly recognizable entrances and exits, a power connection (230V) and good data reception (LTE/5G) are advantageous.

Where do you position the license plate scanners?

The license plate scanners are installed near the driveway. The exact position varies from location to location. Our license plate scanners have a range of up to 100m and can scan a width of approx. 12m. They can therefore be mounted on facades, lamp posts or roofs.

What measures are taken against third-party parking?

Third-party and long-term parkers who park their vehicles without authorization are detected by our system and automatically receive a penalty notice.

What is the local signage and labeling like?

General terms and conditions and information signs are installed in every parking space to draw attention to the fact that this is a customer parking space with a corresponding maximum parking time. The corresponding contractual penalty for non-compliance is also clearly visible. In paid parking areas, these signs are supplemented by others that explain the parking process using the digital system. The signs are large and clearly visible at the entrances and exits and in the parking area. Vehicle owners agree to the T&Cs by driving into the parking lot.

How does the optimization of parking space control with a camera system work?

Our digital parking space surveillance uses electronic means to monitor your parking spaces. Cameras use AI-based software to reliably record the license plates of all vehicles - without the need for a barrier.

Are the parking time limits in this system optimally designed?

The use of digital systems makes it possible to optimize parking times. The use of parking spaces is made efficient with the help of parking time limits and long parking times are avoided. The parking time limitation takes place in consultation with your individual needs at your location.

What are the advantages of digital parking space monitoring compared to conventional parking systems with parking discs and barriers?

Companies benefit from the fact that the search for a parking space is optimized for customers and thus a customer-friendly atmosphere is created, as nothing else has to be considered. By optimising parking lot monitoring, the workload for your employees is also reduced.
