Kennett Square is partnering with mobile technology company Passport to provide drivers with a new way to pay for parking, according to a staff report from Parking Network.

The PassportParking app allows users to securely pay for metered parking using their debit or credit card. Already widely available throughout the Northeast, the app allows customers to monitor and remotely add parking time up to the maximum allowed allotted.

“The Borough of Kennett Square is excited to add this innovative technology,” said Joe Scalise, Borough Manager. “The PassportParking app makes it easier for parkers to pay while giving them new features like receiving notifications and being able to extend their parking session.”

The app will be available where signs are displayed for on- and off-street parking locations, including information on how users can download PassportParking and get started with the app.

The PassportParking application is available as a free download at iPhone App Store and Android Google Play. Users can also use ppprk.com to manage their parking online.
