Questions, answered.
How does PayLot work?+
Drivers scan a unique QR code at the lot, enter their plate, choose a duration and pay — all in under 30 seconds. Operators see real-time earnings while enforcement officers verify paid sessions instantly from any phone.
Where is PayLot available?+
PayLot is a private parking management company operating across Alberta and Ontario — including Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Toronto, Ottawa, Mississauga, Hamilton and every other major city in both provinces.
Are you a parking management company or just software?+
Both. PayLot operates as a private parking management company: we handle payments, signage, enforcement tooling and driver support end-to-end. Lot owners simply receive their share of revenue.
How are drivers verified by enforcement?+
Officers log in from any phone and search a plate. The app returns PAID/UNPAID with a live countdown — no app install is required for the driver.
Do you support contactless payments?+
Yes. Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay all work in-browser, with no driver registration required to start.
What does it cost to operate?+
There is no upfront cost or hardware to install. PayLot earns a share of each paid session, configured privately per site. Contact us for a tailored proposal.
