Zain postpaid customers can now easily enjoy the services PASS offers, including ticketless parking and pre-booking parking spots, when linking their PASS account with their Zain line, without the need to continuously top up within the app. Customers can simply choose Zain as their favorite payment option within the app and follow the instructions to link their PASS account with their Zain postpaid line. Afterwards, parking fees will be automatically added to the customer's monthly bill every time they use the app.
PASS, a Kuwait-based app, is the first smart parking management system in the Middle East, and was designed to make parking more efficient and hassle-free. The app uses Automatic Number-Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology to allow cars to enter and exit parking lots with simplicity and ease without the need for tickets, cash, or coins. In addition, PASS offers a service for pre-booking parking spots in selected locations to allow users to guarantee a parking spot before their arrival.
PASS is currently available at Al-Hamra Tower, Kuwait Souq, Mubarakiya, Yaal Mall, Wataniya Complex, Shuwaikh 125, and Baitak Tower. Pre-booking services are available at The Avenues and Murouj. A number of new locations are to be added soon, including Crystal Tower, Souk Al-Maseel, Terrace Mall, Mazaya Clinic, and Sun City.
