Automatic Flash Parking Permit Waitlist Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens Flash Parking, finds monthly permits that opened up from a cancellation or non-renewal, matches each one to the next eligible parker on your waitlist, drafts them an offer email in Gmail, and posts your office team a Slack list of offers ready to send.

In short

How do I notify the next parker on my waitlist when a permit opens up?

WebRun checks Flash Parking every morning for monthly permits that opened up from a cancellation or non-renewal, and matches each one to the next eligible parker on your waitlist for that garage and permit type. It drafts them an offer in Gmail with the rate and a deadline, then posts your office team a Slack list of offers ready to send.

  • Open permits get offered out the same morning they free up
  • Every offer goes to the correct next parker in line, not just the newest signup
  • No permit sits open because a waitlist offer was forgotten

Built for parking garage operators · monthly permit programs · commuter parking operators · parking management companies

Questions, answered

Will it send the offer to the parker without me?

No. Every waitlist offer is left as a Gmail draft for your office team to review and send. WebRun never emails a parker directly.

How does it decide who's next on the waitlist?

It matches each open permit to the next eligible parker in line for that specific garage and permit type, not just the top of the whole list.

What happens if the offer isn't answered by the deadline?

WebRun flags it in the next day's Slack list so your office team can follow up or move to the next parker in line.

Put this on autopilot.
