Perte de temps, terrible

App doesn’t work

App won’t let me add my license plate and won’t let me pay with a credit card. Bad.

Unusable

Tried to use to pay to park but couldn't even register license plate. Totally archaic design. Never will use again.

Designed to waste money

Rather than just charging your card what you owe, you have to add money to the account, which you can’t withdraw, so use it or lose it, which means every user will probably end with a balance in their account

So the bare minimum

I’m rather shocked disappointed and frustrated to the extreme that the province of Alberta would go into businesss with a company that cannot even figure out its sub processors for accepting cash outside of your own city! Was there any vetting of the application!?!? Or was it just the cheapest solution?
