Visitors of the elite athletic training and boarding school can use the Passport Parking app to pay for and manage parking

Geneva, Ohio (Feb. 11, 2026) – SPIRE Academy, the 850,000-square-foot Ohio-based athletic development complex and boarding school, is partnering with Passport to modernize its paid parking operations. Beginning today, visitors can use the Passport Parking app to pay for and manage parking digitally, while staff gain tools to efficiently oversee parking activity and payment processing.

To initiate a parking session, a user downloads the free Passport Parking app from the App Store or Google Play, enters the zone number, license plate number, and desired length of time for parking. The app allows motorists to receive expiration alerts, extend parking sessions remotely, and access receipts and parking history. Parking can also be managed online at passportparking.com.

“Our campus welcomes athletes, families, staff, and visitors every day, and parking plays an important role in that experience. Passport gives our guests a simple, mobile-first way to pay for parking, while giving our team the tools and insight we need to manage demand and maintain an efficient, successful parking operation,” said Julie Drury, Business Development Manager at SPIRE Academy.

Passport unifies the complexities of parking and mobility management into one simple platform, helping communities of all sizes work smarter and more efficiently. With a variety of financial tools, staff can track payment processing and revenue, while real-time data on parking demand and activity helps guide thoughtful decision making.

“Passport is built to simplify paid parking for destinations like SPIRE Academy, where demand can change quickly based on events and daily activity,” said Jake Breig, Regional Sales Director at Passport. “With Passport Parking, visitors get a fast and flexible way to pay from their phone, and the Academy gains the reporting and operational tools needed to manage parking and payments with confidence.”
