When do we use this?

Text2ParkMe (T2P) allows users to pay for temporary parking via SMS (text) messaging. Text2ParkMe will also send out reminders when their parking time is about to expire and allow users the option to extend their parking time. Text messaging fees do apply based on individual phone plans.

If you have purchased Text2ParkMe, you must have a gateway provider setup to accept T2P payments. You must work with our project manager to ensure this gateway is configured and tested to work with your system. 

You will also require a T2P phone number that your users will text to obtain temporary parking. The OperationsCommander Support team will ensure this number is setup and tested for you.


  1. Hover over 'Parking Management' and click 'Lot Administration' then 'Pricing & Lot Admin'.
  2. The 'Permit Pricing & Lot Administration' window is displayed.  Click on a Lot Name to display the 'Lot Administration' window. Click on the 'Temporary Parking' tab.  You must fill out all the items in the Red box. 
    Text Code is the display name that users will see when choosing this lot to park in.
  3. Click the 'Update this Lot' button to save the changes.
