ProductsNOW! Innovations offers a number of products for various application areas. Despite the functional differences between the various products, they typically share the following features:
The products currently offered are: ParkNOW!is aimed at private motorists as well as enterprises with fleets of automobiles. ParkNOW! makes your life easier by enabling you to pay for your parking with your mobile phone, offering at the same time employers a very efficient way of managing employees' parking transactions. It is also possible, for example, for municipal organisations to seamlessly manage parking permits for local residents. PermitNOW!enables our customers to manage any kind of permits that give the right to park a car in a given zone during a pre-specified period. Typical examples include a resident permit, handicap permit, tourist permit, etc. TollNOW!is a system for managing access rights and payments to enter specified zones or pass control points. TollNOW! is typically implemented using RFID (radio frequency identification) technology. Alternatively, solutions can be offered combining mobile phone payment with automatic license plate recognition technology for control. ControlNOW!is a sophisticated system providing parking and public transport operators all tools necessary for controlling mobile tickets and digital permits as well as processing fines, including their issueing and follow-up. The system can deal with any amount of different fine types with different follow-up rules and policies. RideNOW!is aimed at public transport passengers. Instead of looking for a ticket sales point or fighting your way to the driver through the crowd, you can buy your ticket from anywhere with just a few pushes of your mobile phone buttons. TicketNOW!is a mobile ticketing system operated in cooperation with entertainment venues (concert halls, theatres, movie theatres) and/or event organizers. These events typically have two distinct characteristics: the events/showings take place at a specific time, and often have reserved seating. Therefore the m-ticketing solution must also be integrated with the existing systems at the client site. Mobile tickets may also be used for entry to non-reserved attractions such as museums, amusement parks, etc. where a ticket gives the right to enter an attraction once during a set time period. In such cases no integration with existing system is required, and the solution is very easy to implement. PayNOW!is a payment application where the cost of the transaction is calculated by a 3rd party system and the NOW! platform is only used for carrying out the charging. A typical example of this is gated off-street parking where the driver receives a paper ticket at the entry gate and, instead of going to a payment machine, sends the ticket code to the service short number thus activating a payment. The payment confirmation will then be sent back to the local parking lot system, and the exit gate will open when the paid paper ticket is inserted.
