01
Lines and forms every term
Collecting forms, plates and payments in person takes staff away from everything else at the start of a term.
For schools, colleges and universities
Student parking permits for the term, without the line at the front office.
Students sign up from a link or a poster, enter their student ID and plate, and pay for the term online. Faculty and staff can get their own price by school email, and when a lot fills up, the waitlist moves on its own.

The operating problem
Permit season shouldn't mean a week of paperwork
02
Different people, different prices
Students, faculty and staff often pay different amounts, which turns a simple list into a pricing spreadsheet.
03
Popular lots oversell
Without a live count, more permits get sold than the lot can hold, or a waitlist lives on paper.
How it works
Set it up once, run it every term
- 1
Make the permit
Start from the Students and teachers template, set the term dates, and ask for a student ID if you need one.
- 2
Post the link and poster
Students scan the QR poster or open the link, sign in, and pay for the term.
- 3
Fill the lot fairly
Set how many permits a lot holds. Once it's full, new sign-ups wait in line and get in as places open.
What you can run
Made for the school year
Term permits
Pay once for the term, and the permit stops on the term's last day.
School-email prices
Faculty and staff get their own price, or park free, when they sign up with a confirmed school email.
Student ID
Ask for a student ID number at sign-up, and search holders by it later.
Sign-up windows
Open and close sign-ups on set days, so permits go on sale when you're ready.
Waitlists
When a lot is full, the next person in line gets the place when one opens up and is emailed right away.
Approval your way
Review every request, approve some email domains right away, or approve everyone.
Questions
What teams ask before switching.
Straight answers based on the way getParkFlow works today.
Can students pay for the whole term at once?+
Yes. A permit can be paid once for the term and lasts through the term's last day.
Can faculty park free?+
Yes. Give faculty a special price of free by confirmed school email, or make a separate free permit for them.
