Choosing the Right Parking Operator Matters

Not all operators are built the same. Here’s how our approach compares so you can choose the partner that truly aligns with your goals.

Their Approach

Flash focuses largely on developing and delivering parking pay stations and access control solutions like gate arms to management providers. Rather than provide full parking management services, Flash offers a parking access and revenue control system (PARCS) including gates, meters, and other traditional methods of parking access control. Flash pay stations are typically used in settings requiring physical hardware where mobile payments cannot be employed.

Our Approach

AirGarage takes a modern, full-stack approach to parking management—combining technology, operations, and customer service into a seamless solution.

Instead of simply overseeing a property, we actively manage it to maximize revenue, improve the driver experience, and reduce headaches for owners.

Our model is transparent and aligned: we only succeed when you do.

That means no hidden fees, no hands-off oversight, and no outdated systems. Just real-time data, responsive support, and a commitment to keeping your property clean, safe, and profitable.
