4411-Parking is the best way for residents and visitors alike to pay for parking. This can be done either via an SMS or with a handy 4411 smartphone app. The service offered by Mobile-for is an ‘open’ form of pay-by-phone parking. It is a unique concept that was introduced in September 2006 in Antwerp, and is now available in 22 cities. An ‘open’ system, such as that of 4411, is accessible to everyone. Thanks to the development of the 4411 app, it is now even more user-friendly. The system is available to all the clients of the four Belgian mobile network operators, namely Proximus, Mobistar, Base and

Telenet.
