**Text2ParkMe (T2P)** allows users to pay for temporary parking via SMS (text) messaging. Text2ParkMe will also send out reminders when their parking time is about to expire and allow users the option to extend their parking time. Text messaging fees **do** apply based on individual phone plans.
If you have purchased Text2ParkMe, you must have a gateway provider setup to accept T2P payments. You must work with our project manager to ensure this gateway is configured and tested to work with your system.
You will also require a T2P phone number that your users will text to obtain temporary parking. The **OperationsCommander** Support team will ensure this number is setup and tested for you.
