This feature allows operators to offer an attractive, all-day parking rate to vehicles that enter within a defined morning time window, helping to balance occupancy and encourage early usage of parking facilities.
The Early Bird configuration enables operators to set a special fixed rate for customers who park within a specified entry timeframe. For example, a parking site may configure an Early Bird rate of RM10 flat for vehicles that enter between 6:00 AM and 9:00 AM. Once validated, the fixed rate applies to the customer’s entire stay for that day, regardless of the actual parking duration.
Benefits for Operators
1. Encourages Early Occupancy – Incentivizes drivers to park earlier in the day, helping to fill spaces during off-peak hours.
2. Simplifies Rate Management – Eliminates the need to calculate hourly charges for qualifying customers, reducing complexity.
3. Supports Flexible Pricing Models – Operators can adjust time windows and rates according to demand and customer behavior.
