The initial situation

Sparkasse Recklinghausen was facing a problem: although the underground car park had been modernized, the barrier and payment system was outdated. High maintenance and operating costs, particularly due to the cash-based payment system, were putting a strain on the budget. The old system did not reflect the bank's modern image and did not offer any digital payment options, which increasingly frustrated both customers and employees. A more modern, innovative solution was urgently needed.

The solution

With the Wemolo solution, Sparkasse Recklinghausen was able to completely transform its underground parking garage into a modern, digital system. The new, barrier-free solution reflects the bank's innovative image and offers a smooth, digital user experience that delights both customers and employees.

Cashless and flexible payment system:

The new digital system allows users to pay their parking fees quickly and easily without cash - either by card on site or online up to 24 hours after leaving. High-resolution screens inform users about outstanding payments, creating a pleasant and modern parking experience. Savings bank customers also benefit from a parking discount by simply scanning a QR code during their visit.

Innovative and reliable parking solution:
The camera-based system and the all-round carefree package ensure trouble-free operation around the clock. Wemolo takes over the complete organization of installation, maintenance and operation of the digital system. Cost-intensive breakdowns and the regular maintenance of traditional barrier systems are a thing of the past. The underground car park thus meets the high standards of reliability, innovation and modernity that Sparkasse Recklinghausen sets for its image.

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.
