Q: Why do rental guests purchase in advance?

A: They are required to be able to prevent long lines on the date of their arrival. Many properties increase the cost to the rental guests if they wait until their arrival day as they don’t want there to be lines and want good reviews for the property. This also ensures management company compliance as well as positive review of the arrival experience.

Q: How are rental guests entered into the system?

A: The individual unit owners & management companies input the main rental guest’s information and arrival/departure date once they have received confirmation of the unit being rented online. They do this through a web portal that can be accessed on any computer or mobile device. The input process takes less than 90 seconds.

Q: How are the rental guests contacted?

A: Once the unit owner completes inputting the primary rental guest’s information, they are then both Emailed and SMS texted a link. That link allows for them to put in their information and type of vehicle. Once complete, they are able to purchase their wristbands and/or parking pass as well as E-sign their acceptance of all property rules uploaded by staff.

A: Yes. We only use PCI compliant payment processors like Stripe. Only the condo association has access to the money. Synoaccess has no access to their account.

Q: Is the property required to have implemented RFID on its gates to participate?

A: Synoaccess can work with properties with and without RFID. Without RFID, it’s usually tied into a security patrol inspecting colored wristbands to verify approved guests and owners. Synoaccess can help a property integrate RFID into their access control.

Q: What if a property only wants to sell parking passes?

A: No Problem. Through our platform QR parking passes with expiring departure dates can be purchased. We can text to the guest their QR code that can be read by certain readers either at the gate itself or by property patrol.
