Use Your Phone to Pay for Parking

June 17th, 2008

I was out at lunch today and saw that another sign that mobile payments is becoming more popular, which is great since mobile payment is obviously the core of Obopay. Anyway, I took a picture of it:

pay by phone parking

I am surprised that paying for parking with your phone is not a bigger deal here in the Bay Area.  I mean, if you have been to (or live in) the Bay Area should know how much we end up spending on parking meters, especially in San Francisco.  It’s such a hassle finding coins to feed the meter too.

This paying by phone thing is great.  I read somewhere a while back that they were trying to implement this for BART too.  Not sure how that’s going, but can you imagine if you can just swipe your phone across the subway in New York?  That’d be awesome!
