The problems this solves

Paper citations, mailed checks

Every manual step between violation and payment cuts the collection rate, and the public expects to pay online.

Repeat offenders slip through

Without plate history at the curb, chronic violators collect first-offense fines indefinitely.

Accountability is non-negotiable

Public enforcement demands a defensible record: who issued what, when, with what evidence, and how it was resolved.

How Lotably handles it

Built for municipalities & districts

Issue and print at the curb

Scan the plate, photo the violation, and print the citation on a handheld in seconds, with the correct escalating fine calculated automatically.

Escalation and history

Prior unpaid citations surface at scan time and fine schedules escalate on your ordinance, so repeat offenders are treated as repeat offenders.

Public payment without friction

Residents and visitors pay by ticket number, plate, or the QR on the citation, no account needed, with receipts and an online appeal flow.

Built for audit

A complete, tamper-evident activity log, granular permissions, and CSV/JSON exports for finance, records requests, and oversight.

Program-level reporting

Issuance, collection rate, and revenue by zone and officer, visible live instead of at month end.

What about procurement and pricing?

Entry pricing is published ($99/month plus 5% per citation paid online), and municipal deployments are quoted as Enterprise with the documentation your procurement process needs.
