Latvia’s First Pay-on-Exit Parking

In April, Snabb introduced Latvia’s first pay-on-exit parking system, marking a major step forward in how parking is managed and experienced in the country. The project was first launched in the heart of Riga, at the Origo shopping center, and was delivered in close collaboration with BISS and Verifone.

Snabb provided the digital infrastructure that powers the entire solution — from ANPR-based access control to real-time payment validation and enforcement. Snabb’s platform connects hardware, payments, and user interfaces into a seamless experience.

We partnered with BISS for the hardware setup, including five payment kiosks and three pay-on-exit terminals, all featuring a custom-branded Snabb interface. Verifone equipped the project with secure, modern UX700 Android payment devices that support all major payment methods.

“This launch sets the tone for the future of parking in Latvia. We’re proud to work with partners who share our vision — to make parking simple, digital, and driver-friendly.” commented Snabb’s CTO Ott Reinhold

Origo: Latvia’s First Pay-on-Exit Parking Lot

Riga’s shopping center Origo is now home to the country’s first pay-on-exit parking system — fully operated and digitally managed by Snabb. The parking area includes two zones with ANPR cameras and automatic barriers. Snabb’s system handles license plate recognition, fee calculation, and real-time barrier control. Drivers can pay at traditional kiosks or directly at the exit terminal.

The process is smooth and takes under 20 seconds:

  • ANPR scans the license plate
  • The terminal shows the fee
  • The driver pays using a contactless card or chip at the POS
  • Snabb confirms the payment and opens the barrier

It’s fast, fully digital, and requires no tickets or apps — just drive in and drive out.

This rollout reflects Snabb’s commitment to modernizing the parking experience in the Baltics. By combining intelligent software with flexible hardware integrations, we’re setting a new standard for what parking should feel like: easy, digital, and driver-first.
