CONT

Pay and display machines are very easy to use. Like a parking meter, you insert the monetary amount for parking into the machine. The machine will then dispense a ticket stub that you put on your dashboard. The ticket stub displays the time allotted for parking based on the payment that was made.

OBS

Stemming from the latest technology in parking meters, these units accept cash, Visa and parking tokens as methods of payment.

  • pay and display unit

Les distributrices sont très simples à utiliser. Tout comme avec un parcomètre, on insère le montant requis dans l'appareil, qui imprime un billet qui doit être placé sur le tableau de bord.

OBS

Issus de la dernière technologie en matière de parcomètres, ces appareils acceptent les paiements en espèces, par carte Visa et avec les jetons de stationnement.
