ParkingPerx launched its new integration with RingGo, the UK’s leading cashless parking provider, on Wednesday 16th June, allowing users to park in even more places in Sunderland for free. As a result ParkingPerx users are now able to redeem their Perx that they earn against parking costs in St Mary’s car park, Sunniside car park, the Bridges car park and any car parking location in Sunderland allowing payment via the RingGo app.
With the exclusive arrangement, motorists can earn ‘Perx’ by spending in participating businesses, including shops, cinemas, salons, cafes and restaurants, and then use those ‘Perx’ to pay for parking within the RingGo app that same day, or save them for a later date.
All they have to do is add their ParkingPerx Payment Card to the RingGo app as their preferred payment card, shop local and then simply pay for their parking as normal using the Perx they’ve earned.
The integration is a great example of what can be achieved when key stakeholders like ParkingPerx, RingGo, Sunderland City Council and Sunderland BID come together to tackle problems. Here are some of their thoughts on the collaboration.
With consumers, businesses, local authorities and BIDs all set to benefit from this collaboration, it is likely we will see similar arrangements in a range of different locations over the coming months.
