The airport company Finavia has introduced mobile payment as a payment method for parking at Tampere-Pirkkala Airport. Paying with the parking app is easy and also cheaper than paying with other payment methods.

– We are continuously developing the customer experience at our airport. Mobile payment facilitates both departures and returns, says Mari Nurminen, Director, Tampere-Pirkkala Airport at Finavia.

As of the start of May, customers have been able to pay for airport parking using the Parkman, Easypark and Moovy apps. In addition to the apps, card payment is still available as a payment method. Parking at Tampere-Pirkkala Airport is cheaper with the app than with traditional payment methods. The discount varies depending on the time of day and the day of the week. On average, the discount is approximately 10 per cent.

– Using the app provides flexibility for parking. For example, if your travel plans happen to change during a trip, you can use the app to extend the parking time. You can also do this from abroad, Nurminen says.

Tampere-Pirkkala Airport has three parking areas. Parking is always paid in advance, either using the app or at a parking payment machine. Advance payment machines can be found in the parking areas and inside Terminal 1.

The first 30 minutes of parking are free of charge in all parking areas. You can make use of the free parking time when bringing passengers to the airport or picking them up.

In addition to Tampere-Pirkkala Airport, several other Finavia airports, such as Oulu, Vaasa, Rovaniemi, Kuopio and Turku, also use mobile payment with the ParkMan, EasyPark and Moovy apps.
