Bergen Parkering AS is a public parking operator, responsible for more than 4.000 parking spaces spread over 12 facilities in the Bergen city center.

“We’ve been using Hi! for parking management since 2015 and it is now an essential part of our operations.”

The facilities use barriers for access control in combination with camera detection, allowing for automatic opening and closing of parking barriers using ANPR when the number plate of the vehicle is registered in the system.

Facility-in-facility charging areas

Using Hi! Bergen Parkering is able to differentiate parking rates, allowing for dedicated charging areas for electric vehicles with separate pricing. This allows them to offer the end-user a useful service without affecting the parking experience in any way as the rates are calculated automatically based on the time spent charging.

Value added through smart integrations

In cooperation with Bergen Kino (Bergen Cinema), Bergen Parkering is also able to offer discounts for moviegoers using Hi! and Bergen Kino’s mobile app. The end-user gets a discount on their parking within a specified time frame when using the app and parking in select facilities.

Likewise, end-users are able to enjoy discounts to the nearby swimming and diving center AdO Arena.
