The problems shopping centres actually have

Retail parking has to turn over for shoppers and earn from everyone else. OPARKO is built around the pressure points generic parking software ignores.

All-day commuters hog spaces meant for shoppers

How OPARKO solves it

Set a free, time-limited window for genuine shoppers with automatic LPR overstay detection, while everyone who parks all day pays in the overflow.

Validating customers is clunky at the till

How OPARKO solves it

Each tenant gets a validation login and can extend, discount or waive a stay in seconds, straight from the till.

The car park earns nothing out of hours

How OPARKO solves it

Monetise overflow and off-peak hours with QR or barrier-based paid parking, so quiet periods still generate revenue.

No visibility of occupancy or revenue across zones

How OPARKO solves it

Live occupancy feeds your entrance signage and one dashboard brings every zone together, with exportable reports for centre management.

Keep shoppers shopping

Maximise turnover, monetise overflow

Free timed zones that turn over, paid overflow that earns, and tenant validation that takes seconds.

Time-limited free parking

Set a free window per zone (e.g. 2 hours). Overstay detected by LPR. Automatic notices issued without warden intervention.

Tenant validation

Tenants issue validation codes to their customers. Validated stays don't count toward the free limit, or get discounts.

Paid overflow zones

Convert your overflow car park into a revenue stream with QR or barrier-based paid parking.

LPR across all zones

Cameras read plates automatically. No tickets needed. Enforcement triggered by the system, not by wardens walking the zones.

Occupancy displays

Connect real-time occupancy to LED signs at entrances and on the approach roads. Reduce circling and congestion.

Management dashboard

One view of all zones, all transactions, all enforcement actions. Exportable reports for centre management.

FAQ

Shopping centre parking, answered

What retail and centre managers ask before switching to OPARKO.

How does free parking stay free for genuine shoppers?

You set a free window per zone, for example two hours. LPR reads each plate on entry and exit, so shoppers within the limit are never charged and never ticketed. Only overstays trigger a notice.

How do tenants validate their customers?

Each tenant gets a simple validation login. They register a customer plate from the till and that stay is extended, discounted, or made free, without counting toward the free limit.

Do shoppers need to download an app?

No. Free zones need no action at all, and paid overflow accepts QR codes and the payment apps drivers already use. There is nothing to download and no account to create.

Can I earn from overflow without deterring shoppers?

Yes. Keep your main zones free and time-limited to protect turnover, and price only the overflow area. All-day commuters pay while your customers park free.

How long does it take to go live?

Most shopping centre setups are live within a week. We handle the camera install, zone configuration, signage guidance, and tenant onboarding.
