Top up cashcard at carpark exit

CashCard out of value? Top it up at carpark exit

Motorists will soon be able to avoid the hassle of leaving their vehicles to top up their Nets CashCards at terminals when faced with insufficient funds to pay their parking fees at carparks.

Nets yesterday announced that it is working with carpark payment-solution providers to enable Nets EFTPOS payment at the point of exit.

EFTPOS stands for Electronic Funds Transfer at Point-of- Sale.

Nets EFTPOS will allow motorists to top up their Nets CashCards using their Nets ATM cards directly at the exit, to pay parking fees.

A motorist will have to insert his Nets ATM card into the fee machine and key in his PIN number, in order to do so.

However, the new payment option will be made available only when there are insufficient funds in a motorist's CashCard to pay the parking fee.

Mr Ang Sok Hong, vice-president of sales and partnership at Nets, said: "What we're doing is giving them (motorists) greater convenience so that they have other (payment) options.

"Carpark operators also benefit from implementing the Nets EFTPOS payment system as it allows them to reduce the resources needed to man carparks."
