Our Favourite
Our favourite choice among the above mentioned 5 mobile apps is Flexi Parking. The reasons are:
- The interface of the mobile app is easy to understand albeit relatively less “pretty” than the others.
- Covers more area – so we don’t need a separate application when we are at different districts.
- Able to reload our account via other e-wallet such as Boost, Touch ‘n Go eWallet & GrabPay.
- Able to pay for parking summons – good to have but you would wish that you won’t need to.
