Salik and Valtrans to launch Digital Valet Parking Payment Service on 1 June 2026

Salik Company PJSC (Salik), Dubai’s exclusive toll gate operator, has announced the signing of a strategic partnership with Valtrans Transportation Systems and Services (Valtrans), a leading transportation management and services company, aimed at facilitating digital payment for valet parking services across Valtrans’ network of locations throughout the UAE.

Under this collaboration, Salik will be adopted as an integrated seamless digital payment option within Valtrans-operated sites. This will enable users to pay valet parking service fees with greater flexibility through their Salik e-Wallet across more than 100 locations in the UAE, including major retail, commercial, and entertainment destination hubs such as Mall of the Emirates and DIFC.

The partnership is underpinned by advanced digital capabilities that support the efficiency of valet parking services and payment processes, particularly across high-traffic locations. The integration further reinforces Salik’s pivotal role as a key enabler of smart mobility, delivering effective, data-driven solutions that ensure a seamless and premium customer experience.

Ibrahim Sultan Al Haddad, Chief Executive Officer of Salik, stated: “This strategic partnership marks a key milestone in advancing Salik’s smart mobility ecosystem by expanding the scope of seamless digital payment solutions across everyday mobility touchpoints. Through our strategic partnerships, we continue to leverage our advanced infrastructure to deliver innovative, customer-centric solutions that simplify journeys, enhance service integration, and reinforce Salik’s role as a trusted enabler of sustainable mobility in the UAE.”

Imad Alameddine, Group Chief Executive Officer of Valtrans, said: “This partnership provides our customers with an easier and more seamless way to pay for valet parking services across our network of locations in the UAE. By adopting Salik as a payment option, we aim to enhance transaction efficiency while maintaining a consistently high standard of service, in line with our commitment to operational excellence, innovation, and service quality.”

Expanding Value-Added Digital Services
This partnership aligns with Salik’s strategic direction to expand its portfolio of value-added digital services, reinforcing its role in enabling a more connected and efficient mobility ecosystem through flexible and scalable payment solutions that enhance the user experience and keep pace with the rapid evolution of smart mobility services.

Through this step, Salik continues to deliver seamless payment solutions that extend beyond tolling infrastructure into broader mobility solutions. This journey began with the activation of its first barrier-free parking payment solution, delivered in partnership with Emaar Malls Company, a foundational milestone in seamless mobility. It was followed by a strategic partnership with Parkonic, with operations now live at more than 150 of 200+ locations, marking Salik’s first expansion beyond the Emirate of Dubai. Building on this momentum, Salik collaborated with Dubai Airports to enable seamless parking payments via the Salik e-Wallet at Dubai International Airport, covering Terminals 1, 2, 3, and the Cargo Terminal, culminating in a recent milestone that reinforces its role in shaping integrated, Seamless mobility experiences.

Valtrans delivers valet parking services across airports, hospitality, retail, healthcare, and public-sector locations, backed by more than 20 years of operational experience. The company manages high-volume operations with a strong focus on service continuity, control, and reliability across its network.
