PlateConnect – A Smarter Way to Connect With Drivers
PlateConnect lets people send messages to a vehicle owner without knowing their phone number
What is PlateConnect?
PlateConnect links your license plate number to your mobile phone number (privately and securely). This lets approved senders reach you when it matters – without sharing your identity or personal details. Your phone number is never visible to the sender – unless you choose to share it.
Privacy First
You decide whether your phone number is shared in a response.
• PlateConnect does not track your location.
• Messages are triggered only when your vehicle/plate is observed.Your personal details are never shared with other drivers.
Why Register Your Plate?
Some example benefits: With PlateConnect, you can receive:
Parking courtesy alerts - “Your headlights are on.”
Charging station updates (EV) - “Your parking session is complete.”
Parking Violations - “You are illegally parked.”
Parking enforcement/time limits - “Your parking time is elapsing in 10 min”
No apps. No downloads. Just a simple way to stay informed.
How It Works
You register your plate by simply texting your license plate number to 1-877-TXT-A-CAR
Individuals or business can message you by using your license plate number from their phone or through www.877TXTACAR.com
PlateConnect is FREE for individuals
