AXS Launches AXS Drive App for Seamless Cardless Parking
AXS has unveiled its latest innovation, the AXS Drive app, designed to revolutionise the parking experience at malls, offices, and other commercial spaces.
This new motoring app aims to eliminate common parking frustrations by enabling cardless payments through users’ credit cards linked to their car details.
Streamlined Parking Experience
The AXS Drive app simplifies the parking process by automatically deducting parking fees from linked credit cards. This eliminates issues such as stored-value card errors, insufficient funds, and the hassle of scanning complimentary parking tickets.
At launch, the app is available at 12 commercial car parks, including popular locations such as Downtown East, Far East Plaza, The Heeren, and Wisma Atria. AXS plans to expand this to 100 car parks by the end of 2024, aiming for a 12 percent market share in the commercial car park segment.
Innovative Technology Integration
AXS Drive leverages License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology to record entry and exit times, processing payments seamlessly as vehicles leave the car park.
Integrated with existing Electronic Parking Systems (EPS), the app ensures compatibility without the need for additional hardware, making it easy for car park operators to adopt.

User-Friendly Setup
The app is free to download on both Android and iOS platforms. Users simply need to input their car plate and In-Vehicle Unit (IU) number, and link a credit or debit card for payments.
For the first year, AXS Drive partners exclusively with Mastercard, offering a secure payment experience through Mastercard Gateway. Multiple vehicles can be linked to a single credit card, simplifying payments for families or offices. Users can also renew season parking within the app.
Enhanced Driving Experience
AXS Drive offers additional features to enhance the driving experience. Users can check parking space availability and receive real-time traffic updates through integrated traffic cameras. The app also facilitates payments for common motoring services, such as road tax renewals and fines, and maintains a detailed log of online receipts for easy expense tracking and reimbursement claims.
Future Plans and Referral Campaign
AXS is exploring opportunities to collaborate with malls to integrate rewards points directly into the app, enhancing both shopping and parking experiences. This paperless system is environmentally friendly and reduces clutter.
At launch, AXS is running a referral campaign where users can earn a SGD 1 voucher for each referral who makes a parking payment through the app. These vouchers are tracked under the Parking Privileges section and automatically applied to parking charges.
