Methods and systems for allocating a parking spot to a user are described. When a user enters a parking structure, the user's device is detected by a beacon. The beacon identifies the user, and passes the user's identification and location to a service provider. In some embodiments, the service provider assigns a parking spot to the user based on a user profile associated with the user identification and location. In other embodiments, the service provider transmits the user identification and/or profile information to a merchant. The merchant can then submit parking spot offers for different parking spots at different prices with different incentives.
