Parkin has announced an agreement with Majid Al Futtaim Properties to introduce parking services at malls in Dubai.
Barrierless parking will be implemented at Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Deira and City Centre Mirdif by January 1 2025, under a five-year contract.
The new seamless entry and exit experience is expected to ease mall access for more than 20 million cars annually across the three sites.
Parking fees at malls in Dubai
Mall parking fees will remain unchanged, offering customers consistent and transparent pricing.
Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Deira and City Centre Mirdif are among the busiest retail destinations in Dubai with thousands of daily visitors. With Parkin’s advanced barrierless parking technology, visitors will no longer need to wait at the barriers when entering or exiting mall car parks.
Advanced cameras will automatically capture licence plates, tracking each vehicle’s progress and duration of stay. Implementation of the new system will significantly reduce congestion levels and customer queueing times, particularly during peak hours, ensuring smoother traffic flow and an enhanced parking experience in Dubai.
Customers will be informed about parking costs upon entry by SMS or via Parkin’s dedicated mobile app. Visitors will be able to use Parkin’s app or its website to settle any parking charges.
Parkin will be responsible for the installation of cameras, barriers and related technology at the site throughout the contractual period, as well as any future maintenance.
Eng. Mohamed Abdulla Al Ali, CEO of Parkin, said: “This strategically important agreement with the region’s leading mall operator complements our existing operations and underscores our ability to deliver growth outside of our core public parking market.
“Our smart systems will reduce congestion and enable smooth traffic flow, enhancing the overall customer experience at some of the busiest and well-known retail locations in Dubai.
“As the clear market leader in parking operations, management and technology, we will continue to leverage our unique capabilities and know-how to pursue further attractive partnership opportunities in this growing sector across the Emirate.”
Khalifa Bin Braik, CEO of Majid Al Futtaim, said: “At Majid Al Futtaim, we are constantly seeking innovative ways to enhance the customer experience at every touchpoint. Our partnership with Parkin demonstrates our commitment to offering advanced solutions that simplify the parking process while addressing common visitor challenges.
“Whether it’s the convenience of barrier-free entry or the ease of electronic payment, this technology will provide millions of our customers with a seamless parking experience each year and will be one of the many smart solutions that we will introduce at our malls.”
