Parking

Record a car in the church parking, pay the parking fee with an M-Pesa prompt, with or without a member login, and list recent parkings.

Premium

Parking needs the church's premium plan. A basic church answers Your church is currently not subscribed to this feature.

The church sets a parking fee for members and one for visitors (either may be zero). A paid parking carries the account number CAR- followed by the number plate, so a driver can also pay at the church paybill directly (account numbers). Ushers confirm and check cars out in the portal.
