Spark Parking: Modernize Parking Kiosks with EV Charging

Transform parking operations with a turnkey platform for parking kiosks and EV charging payments. Paygasus’ Spark Parking with EV Charging supports kiosk upgrades, secure card acceptance, and merchant processing, pairing durable hardware with EV charging payment support.

Paygasus is the payments and connectivity operating system for the physical economy. Parking and EV charging are the curbside layer — the meter, the stall, and the charger, where a city collects revenue from drivers who never set foot indoors.
