ParkMobile has 30 million users across North America and is available for both iPhone and Android devices. ParkMobile can also be accessed on a mobile web browser for those who do not want to download an app. To pay for parking using the mobile or web app, a user enters the zone number posted on signs in the parking lots, selects the amount of time needed, and touches the "Start Parking" button to begin the session. The user can also extend the time of the parking session on their mobile device.

The launch of Greenville expands the company's footprint in South Carolina, where there are over 332,000 users in the state. ParkMobile is also available in Columbia and Myrtle Beach. Greenville is situated between Atlanta and Charlotte, two of ParkMobile's most popular markets in the Southeast.

"Convenience is key when it comes to parking," said Merle Johnson, Director of Economic and Community Development. "Finding ways to make it easier for citizens, tourists, and regular commuters will only benefit the Greenville economy. Even little things, like paying to park from your phone, can make a difference for downtown retailers and restaurants seeking to grow their sales and customer base."

"With Greenville being so close to our hometown of Atlanta, we hear a lot of great things about the city," says Jeff Perkins, CEO of ParkMobile. "We're excited to continue growing our presence in the South and welcome Greenville to the ParkMobile family."
