Coming Soon: "Brooklyn - Best Borough for Parking"

BROOKLYN, N.Y., Dec. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Parkofon's "easy pass to parking" has come to Brooklyn and is set to dispel the popular notion that finding and paying for parking has to be a miserable pain. The New York-based mobility startup's post-Thanksgiving launch has given residents and commuters alike plenty to be grateful for: guaranteed-open garage parking available at a low flat fee, backed by hassle-free cashless transactions.

Parkofon Founder and CEO Evgeny Klochikhin had this to say about the company's philosophy: "Too many mobility companies prioritize technology over people. Rather than burdening our users with the responsibility of buying into an expensive and unproven smart-city concept, we offer a solution which operates at the pace of daily life, and which plugs seamlessly into people's everyday routine."

Early adopters are currently enjoying these exclusive benefits via the Parkofon app:

• Guaranteed-open daily parking spots at $4 per hour in partner garages located at 180 Ashland Place and 100 Myrtle Avenue
• Dirt-cheap overnight parking in the same convenient garage locations from 8pm-7am at just $8 per night
• Automated payments and stay-time extensions at 1-hour intervals

After a 15-day trial period, Brooklynites have the chance to subscribe at 47% off the standard price?just $6.99 per month. Subscriptions come packaged with the award-winning Parkofon device, which installs easily into any vehicle and greatly expands the app's functionality.

In addition to guaranteed garage parking, subscribers gain access to real-time, on-street space availability, which makes circling the block a thing of the past; Pay What You Stay automated transactions, which charge only for the exact time parked in partner garages (and not a minute longer); and automated alerts reminding you to top up your meter when it's running low, or to move your vehicle when street cleaning is coming.

Parkofon is an award-winning mobility company that has been recognized as a leader in innovative parking solutions by the Mobility Services award at Detroit Auto Show, Global Automotive and Mobility Innovation Challenge category winner award, and was among just 8 businesses selected globally to present in front of Renault at Mondial Tech Paris Motor Show. Parkofon collaborates with NYU's smart transportation center to better serve Brooklyn residents with easier, more accessible parking and improved urban design.
