The gate is slow where every car is held for a card and a note

Visitors would rather not hand over their card, cars queue at the barrier, and when something happens the logbook cannot say which car came in when.

  1. Visitors would rather keep their card, and the booth must look after the ones it holds.

    01

    Read the card, hand it back

    Photograph the ID card or the driving licence and get the name and number as fields. The card itself never stays at the booth.

    ID card 1.25 · licence 1.25 credits

  2. Plates written in a book one car at a time, with gaps and wrong provinces.

    02

    Read the plate

    One photo from the barrier camera or the guard’s phone gives the plate, the province, the make, the model and the colour.

    0.25 credits a photo

  3. Something happens, and nobody knows which car came and went when.

    03

    Find it later

    Results come back as fields with a time, so your system keeps them as a record you can search by plate or name.

    Plans S 1,500 · M 3,000 · L 7,500 THB a month

Gate S reads 10,000 plates a month, about 0.15 THB a plate before VAT.

Before you decide, you will want to know this

Every answer comes from the API documentation and the published measurement.

Nong iApp, the iApp mascot
Do we need new cameras at the gate?

Not necessarily. The API takes still photos, from the camera you have or the guard’s phone, as long as the plate is clear in the frame.

Can we pay monthly?

Yes. Gate plans: S 1,500 THB for 10,000 plates, M 3,000 THB for 30,000 plates, L 7,500 THB for 100,000 plates a month before VAT, charged to a card; beyond that, 0.25 credits a plate. Or pay as you go with no monthly fee.

Can it run on the estate’s own network?

Yes. Ask sales for an on-premises quote at sale@iapp.co.th or 02-124-4041.

How long does integration take?

One HTTP POST, with examples in curl, Python and JavaScript, and an open-source SDK for web and apps. Try it on the free credits before you write production code.

Can we get a tax invoice in our company’s name?

Yes. Request it from the credits page of your account after you pay.
