Parking management has changed a lot in recent years. Not so long ago, most parking lots or car parks were manned by parking attendants and people had to buy tickets from a kiosk or machine. 

These days, you’re much more likely to find ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) or ALPR (automatic license plate recognition) systems. When people have finished their parking session, they enter their license plate details on a touchscreen device and pay for the time spent parked.

You can even book your parking spot in advance, using apps such as Park&Go. 

At offices and depots, parking also needs to be managed. Where people used to sign in with their vehicle details at a reception desk, now you can simply offer a touchscreen tablet device. Drivers enter their license plate and it is automatically logged in the system.

If you’re planning to manage parking on a tablet device, it’s a good idea to invest in a sturdy and secure tablet stand or iPad stand. In this guide, we’re going to look at the top 5 Bouncepad iPad stands for parking management.

5 Best Parking Management iPad Stands

Parking management has evolved. Now drivers are more likely to use a tablet device to sign in than a ticket machine, manned kiosk, or reception desk. Below, you’ll find five of the best Bouncepad iPad stands for parking management.  

1. Core Flip

The Core Flip is sturdy but compact, so you’re saving counter space without sacrificing stability. The tilting and flipping function makes it easy for drivers and staff to switch screen views. It’s perfect for checking license plates quickly or just flipping the screen to a driver for confirmation.

For extra security, the Core Flip comes with an integrated 180-degree USB-C cable that keeps your device charged without clutter. But if you’re looking for more, we also offer reinforced cables as an added security option. Those make it harder for anyone to tamper with the setup. The Core Flip’s solid steel base also adds a layer of security by preventing accidental movement, so you won’t have to worry about it tipping or getting knocked around. You can link this iPad stand with a credit card reader to make it easy for visitors to pay for their parking session. 

2. Core Lounge

The Core Lounge has a minimalist design, but is highly durable. It has a reinforced cable that’s lockable and anchored for added security. The stand itself is small enough to be portable, so if you need to move it around or pass it to someone, it’s easy to handle. 

The Core Lounge includes a 2-meter charging cable with a grip to keep the connection stable, so your tablet stays charged throughout the day. This makes it ideal for busy parking lot management. Overall, the Core Lounge is a budget-friendly option, but does the job well for vehicle check-in, plate entry, QR scanning, or quick checks.

3. Original Floorstanding

The Original Floorstanding is perfect for setups where a counter isn’t available. With its heavy steel base, it’s incredibly stable, so you won’t have to worry about it tipping over, even in busy locations. This floor-standing option gives you flexibility to place it wherever it’s most convenient in the parking area or entryway.

At 3.7 feet (114 cm), it’s designed so staff or visitors can easily operate it while standing. It’s a good height for a range of users, whether they’re entering their license plate, scanning a QR code, or viewing parking instructions. Plus, the height makes it prominent and accessible.

You can also set it up in either portrait or landscape mode, which is useful if you’re displaying specific visitor instructions or displaying parking information.

4. Click

The Click stand is an excellent choice for portability and ease of use. It’s got a simple click-and-release system, so you can dock the iPad securely, and with a press of a button, undock it in seconds. If you want to keep it mobile, you can leave it freestanding, or if you prefer a bit more security, there’s an option to mount it in place with a lock.

When anchored, it’s locked into place with an optional cable lock and can be mounted to a counter or wall. This keeps it stable, prevents theft, and still gives you quick access to undock if you need to. The setup is sturdy enough to handle frequent use in a busy parking area, too.

5. Eddy

Eddy has a sleek aluminum frame to add a professional look, making it perfect for check-in areas or parking lots. Eddy is very easy to set up. Just remove it from the box and place it on your counter, using the suction grip. No installation needed.

Eddy’s base lets you rotate the iPad freely, making it easy to adjust for different viewing angles. It also tilts, making it comfortable for everyone to use whether sitting or standing.
