NEW YORK CITY CONSIDERS BITCOIN FOR PAYING PARKING TICKETS

The City of New York’s Department of Finance is currently considering using Bitcoin as a method for paying parking tickets. The department issued a Request for Information to find better ways for facilitating the application of parking laws.
The document, titled ‘Mobile Solutions for Payment and Hearing Scheduling of Parking Tickets,’ is available online here.
NYC Looks for Solutions
‘The New York City Department of Finance (DOF) is issuing a Request for Information to obtain information on mobile solutions for payment and hearing scheduling for parking tickets. Prospective vendors should understand that this RFI is not a request for proposal but rather a request for information that will assist the City in understanding A) the current market environment for mobile payment options that could provide greater ease for vehicle owners; and B) the current market for technologies that would allow someone to request a hearing and submit evidence.’ – Page 2, ‘Mobile Solutions for Payment and Hearing Scheduling of Parking Tickets.’
