Case Study: PayByPhone achieves seamless multilingual parking experiences with Lokalise

Parking made easy in any language with Lokalise

PayByPhone, owned by Volkswagen Financial Services, helps drivers pay for parking through web, smartphone, and smartwatch apps in multiple languages. As the company expanded quickly into new countries and cities, it needed a web-based translation management system to manage growing language needs, keep strings updated across time zones, let translators work with screenshots, and speed up delivery across iOS, Android, and web.

PayByPhone chose Lokalise to centralize localization with integrations such as API, CLI, webhooks, Slack, and Sketch, plus features like live edit, glossary, and translation memory. With Lokalise, the team replaced spreadsheet-based workflows, improved translation quality, kept communication and strings in context, and helped improve the development release cycle. While no exact numeric impact was given, PayByPhone reported easier control over localization and better efficiency and agility.
