VARS Technology offers advanced ANPR protection, facial recognition, and parking management systems, alongside debt recovery services for forecourts and retailers. Our goal is to protect your business, reduce losses, and enhance site security.

Our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system instantly detects and flags blacklisted or suspicious vehicles. It automates the reporting of drive-offs and “no means of payment” incidents, ensuring swift recovery of fuel debts and reducing crime by up to 90%.

Our facial recognition technology identifies repeat offenders or problem individuals. Every alert is manually reviewed and rated by severity, allowing you to take action quickly and effectively. The system can also share alerts between locations using the same network, providing a stronger layer of protection.
