Bahrain Car Parks Company (Amakin), has strategically partnered with PASS, a Kuwait-based company and the first Middle Eastern smart parking management system that uses automatic number-plate recognition (ANPR) technology designed to make parking more efficient and hassle-free.

This collaboration falls within the scope of Amakin’s strategy to expand its digital partnerships across the region. The agreement will enable Amakin to exchange knowledge and benefit from parking innovations developed by PASS. As a result of this collaboration, PASS customers will have access to all Amakin locations, beginning with the Terminal in Adliya, utilizing the PASS mobile application to manage their parking and make payments in a seamless digital experience.

The inclusion of this service intends to extend Amakin’s service portfolio, expand its user-friendly approach, and provide the local community with cutting-edge solutions within parking structures.
