In Guadalajara, the mobile application Blinkay has begun to operate, allowing users to pay for parking meters digitally. This tool aims to modernize the public parking system, facilitating the process for drivers and reducing the use of cash. According to the available information, users must cover the corresponding fee as established in the 2016 Income Law, now through this new digital platform. First, users must scan the QR code available on signage or informational spaces, or download the app directly from the App Store or Play Store. Subsequently, it is necessary to create an account using an email address. Once registered, the next step is to load a balance within the application, which will allow for agile parking payments. Similarly, the platform is designed to be intuitive, so the entire process can be completed in a few minutes from a cell phone. Payment options and operation It should be noted that although the app is a digital alternative, it is not the only payment method. Users will also be able to cover the cost of parking at convenience stores, pharmacies, and businesses near regulated zones. This is relevant as it allows for the inclusion of those who do not use mobile applications or prefer traditional methods. Thus, the system combines technological and physical options to facilitate access for all users. Additional functions offered by Blinkay In addition to paying for parking meters, Blinkay incorporates other tools that improve the user experience. Among them are: viewing your history from the main menu, paying for the exact time needed, and transferring balance between users. In this sense, the application not only simplifies payment but also provides greater control over the use of parking.
