How Paid Parking Should Be

Counting up instead of counting down makes so much more sense! Sometimes we just don’t know how long we’re going to be. Sometimes we’re going to be faster and sometimes we’re going to be much longer than anticipated.

Zipstall has solved that problem. It is simple, easy to use and makes the patron feel so much better about parking because we know we will not get ripped off or pay for time not used or end up with a ticket because Time ran out. It’s ingenious!

Will definitely use this again and again!

Worst Parking App Ever

Essentially a scam to get you to pay at lots where you shouldn’t have to. Even when you know you’ll be under the time limit you have to enter a credit card and if you forget to end your session they send you a text hours later when you’d already accrued bogus charges.

Am seriously considering never using the business I frequent that uses this awful parking app.

Leeches

Have you ever wanted to pay more for parking? Have you ever thought? Wow that that machine is way too far away from my car. I want to sit here download an app and pay at least 10% more for parking without a clear understanding of how much I’m going to pay? This is the perfect app for you. Parking companies are already predatory enough now we need to add an extra layer of predatory on top of that?

So far one star for bad design, was over charged

I forgot to end my session when I left the parking lot. The app does not allow for one to pay hourly and I was not able to use the autostop feature. I forgot to stop the session and went on with my busy day. Bad design and seems predatory to me. If someone pays without saying they were over charged I don’t think they will go out of their way to reimburse a customer. Not impressed. It cost me $53.

Love this App

Hands down, love this app…and the owner is the best. If you call for service, it’s him. Very cool service. Thanks!

Amazing app!

I just started using ZipStall and I am LOVING it! So easy to find good parking rates and no more stupid pay meters!

Annoying and time consuming.

Tried to park at a lot newly managed by this company and app. There was 2 hour free parking but still needed to register plate. In order to do that, you have to download app, create an account, wait for a verification email, add and save your credit card information and enable gps tracking. All just to park for free. I was parked for over 20 minutes trying to fiddle with this app. I could have been in and out finishing my business at the establishments nearby in the time it takes to park for free with this app.

Worst parking app

Worst parking app I’ve used and I’ve used a lot. Takes way too long and even have to enter a cc for free lots

Parking

Best way to start this review off is Kevin is so passionate about making peoples life easier with Zip stall.
He cares about the people using the app. He responded to my issue immediately and makes we want to tell everyone that Kevin cares about his customers using the app. Zip stall is the future let’s make it happen.

makes me sick.

no problems using the app or anything, functionally works fine. just the whole idea of this app makes me sick and i’ll give a couple scenarios as to why:

imagine you drive up to a parking lot in a major city, and out of necessity have to use a zipstall spot, not yet knowing anything about how the app works, and having an old car. you start a parking session, do all the things you want to do in the city when suddenly: your phone dies and you have no means of recharging your phone.

one of two things could happen here: either the parking session ends prematurely, thus now adding the risk of your car getting towed or ticketed, or your session continues until you charge up your phone and hopefully remember that you had a parking session going, to then stop it and pay for a bunch of time you weren’t even parked there.

this could also happen if you simply forget about the app. when leaving wherever i’m parked, the last thing i think about is then parking spot i’ve already sorted out to some extent. but with this app, you have to micromanage it to some extent, especially when your car doesn’t have bluetooth for your phone to connect to and end the parking session automatically.

this app was seemingly built on the hope that people would forget about their parking sessions and that makes me mad. until i can just pay for a set amount of time at a spot BEFORE i leave my car, this will stay at once star. this may be a great system for some, but it takes advantage of the forgetful. scum.

Love this app

I have run into so many difficulties, parking using apps, QR codes, needing the Internet, etc. This app makes it super easy to park and not waste time estimating the time that you are parking for. So convenient and easy to use - top notch!

Parking made easy

The app is super easy to use. You can start and stop parking from your phone. Love the convenience and simplicity.

Easy pesy

Great parking app!

Totally a lie! Don’t download!

We went to a bar and saw a QR code. After I scanned it, it shows free parking. I followed the instructions so I downloaded the app and registered with my credit card. I parked my car with it instructions. When I got out from the parking, it charged me $8.8 with service fee. Totally a lie! Don’t download this app!

Good

Easy to use app, wish Zipstall was everywhere

Bad!

To start a parking session there are simply too many steps. Counterintuitive and hard to navigate. Too many options, buttons, informations, etc.
When I’m parking I want to pay for parking quick, not go thru many screens.
I expect from any parking App to just ask me the location and my license plate and then go to pay.
And then there is that “spin the wheel” thing. Am I ten years old or what?

Great app

Great! Gives you dollars to
Spend in a bunch of stores !

Used the app and still got parking ticket

Used the app and had active session going and still received a parking ticket. Not worth using a lot that uses this app if you still get a ticket and have to take time out of your day to dispute it!

Customer Service

I owe this one to Kevin Petterson and Zipstall.
I parked at a Zipstall enabled capital Impark #156 last evening (2024-08-13). The QR code for the man door was vandalized.
I reached out to the number that Zipstall had and could not get through initially, but after some time Kevin (owner of Zipstall) himself answered (aka Kevin the genie from a lamp for parking problems) opened the door for me to get my vehicle out. This was after hours and still was able to get through.
Anyhow the Zipstall app is very good app.
Have been using Zipstall for quiet a while and it has been nothing less than awesome. I am a technology fan and love such new innovative ideas like Kevin did. Keep going on Zipstall. Would love to see this app go live at Sylvan lake, Drumheller, Jasper, Banff, Calgary and more.

Great App and Better Service

I have tried lots of parking apps and would like to commend the team behind this app as they have continued to listen to their customers and improve the app. I love the feature where you can turn on a feature where your parking charge gets stopped once you leave the parking area (based on your location). Well done team!
