Payments rail · identity layer
Drive in. Drive out.
It's paid.
One enrollment — vehicle, payment method, consent. Every car wash, drive-thru, fuel pump, parking lot, and valet on the network recognizes the vehicle and settles the charge. No app to open at the lane. No card to present at the tunnel.
Being built with Level Parking — the first merchant on the network.

What paived.io is
The rail above your stack — not another box in it.
Operators run their lots, washes, lanes, and pumps. Cameras and POS systems do their jobs. paived.io sits above all of it — matching the vehicle to the account, settling the charge, and showing the driver a receipt they can trust.
It is not a camera, not a POS, not an operator. It is the payments and identity layer any merchant can call.

How it works
Enroll once. Then just drive.
Enroll
Add a vehicle and a payment method once — plate, card, consent. One account for the whole network.
Arrive
At any participating merchant, the vehicle is recognized at the lane. No app, no card, no second account.
Settle
The charge settles to the enrolled account — and a clear receipt lands in the driver's inbox.
Who it's for
One rail. Four ways in.
Drivers
Enroll once, drive anywhere on the network.

For developers→The network
Real, and growing one honest dot at a time.
Five verticals, one live today — the rest on the roadmap. A pending dot is more credible than a faked dense map; watch it light up as new merchants go live.

Why paived.io
Built the way infrastructure should be.
The closed incumbent
- Closed box, no API
- Take rate hidden
- Charge after the fact
- May run a competing lot
paived.io
- Open API + sandbox
- Published take rate — 0.00% on your base
- Every charge shown before it lands
- Operator-neutral — in the contract
Built to be trusted
Transparency is a feature, not a posture.
Trust in vehicle payments has to be designed in. Every commitment here is written into the merchant agreement and the consumer terms — not left to good intentions.
- No charge is ever disguised as a citation or government correspondence.
- Self-serve refunds — initiated in the app, money back on a published SLA.
- Per-merchant data isolation. No cross-merchant joins without a contracted opt-in.
- Explicit, BIPA-grade consent for anything beyond reading a plate.
- Audit logs, surfaced to merchants on request.
The rail for vehicle commerce is being built now.
Operate sites, own the land, build vehicle technology, or just want to drive — let's talk.
