A mall parking system that brings revenue without queues
Hundreds of cars at peak hour, stay validation for customers and tenants' staff - Rivikon manages the whole flow by plate, with an automatic fee on exit and real-time occupancy, from one dashboard.
A shopping centre is not just a paid car park. It has to handle peak traffic, honour shops' validations and separate customers from staff - without slowing down a single car.
With an old system
Tickets, queues and lost revenue
Queues at the barrier with paper tickets at peak hour
Shop validation is manual and slow
Lost tickets and disputes at the exit
No real visibility into occupancy and revenue by zone
Tenants' staff take up customer spaces

Entry and exit by plate in under a second
Stay validation by plate - without paper tickets
A fee on exit without a ticket and without paper
Occupancy and revenue by zone in real time
A separate zone and tariff for tenants' staff
How it helps
Built for the scale of a shopping centre
High flow per lane
Recognition and a decision in under a second, in parallel across several lanes - the barrier lifts before the car stops, even on a Saturday.
Stay validation
Free or reduced parking for customers of shops and restaurants - added to the plate at a validation point, and at the exit the fee is reduced automatically. A portal for the shops - on request.
Zones, levels and tariffs
Open parking, levels and premium spaces - each zone with its own tariff, report and real-time occupancy.
A fee on exit without a ticket
Flexible tariffs - a free first hour (once a day, against "tailgating"), tiered, a daily cap, weekend and holiday rates - and payment at the pay desk with an invoice or receipt on site.
Access for tenants' staff
Subscription access in a separate zone for shop staff, separated from the customer flow, with a report for each tenant.
Revenue and occupancy live
Revenue by hour, day, zone and tariff in real time, plus a heat map of the peaks - a ready basis for decisions on tariffs and promotions.
Adverts on the LED displays = new revenue
The free-spaces display also rotates tenants' adverts (photos and video) - the mall sells advertising space that's already hung at the entrance.
A blacklist with a reason
Plates flagged by the police and problem visitors - a refusal always wins over the other rules and stays in the audit trail.
Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions about malls
If you can't find your question - write to us and you'll get an answer very soon.
How fast do cars pass at peak hours?
Plate recognition and the access decision take under a second per lane, so the barrier lifts before the car fully stops. The system supports several entry and exit lanes in parallel to handle peak traffic on Saturdays and holidays.
How does stay validation work?
At a validation point - the car park pay desk or designated points in the mall - free or reduced parking time is added to the car's plate. At the exit the fee is already reduced automatically, without a ticket. A portal where each shop validates itself - on request for a specific project.
Does it support several entrances, exits and zones?
Yes. The system manages many lanes and zones (open parking, levels, premium spaces by the entrance) from one dashboard, with separate tariffs and reports for each zone and real-time occupancy.
What payment methods do you support?
Payment at the car park pay desk - in cash or by card, with an invoice or receipt on site - and a fee on exit by plate for subscribers and prepaid packages. A self-service pay station and online payment - on request for a specific project.
Can tenants' staff have separate access?
Yes. Shop and tenant staff get subscription access in a separate zone or tariff, separated from the customer flow, with a separate report for each tenant.
What happens with a lost ticket or unreadable plate?
The system relies on the plate, not a paper ticket, so there is none of the classic lost-ticket problem. With an unreadable plate the operator handles the case from the live console view, with a lost-ticket tariff if needed.
Can the free-spaces display also rotate adverts?
Yes. The same LED screen shows occupancy by zone and rotates tenants' advertising photos and videos - the mall sells advertising space that's already hung at the entrance.
