Cashless car parking

How cashless parking works

Cashless parking is a quick and secure way to pay for parking. Instead of having to find the right change for a pay and display machine, you can simply use your mobile phone to pay and the parking fee is charged to your credit or debit card.

You no longer need to carry change or queue at a pay and display machine. You can pay for your parking session using your phone from your car.

How to use PayPoint

When you visit your local PayPoint shop, ask to pay for parking and then give the retailer with the following details:

  • your vehicle registration (number plate)
  • the 4 or 5 digit RingGo location code where your vehicle is parked
  • the time you need to park for.

The retailer will enter this information into the PayPoint terminal and will tell you the fee. You can pay for parking with either coins or a credit or debit card. 

Make sure you keep your receipt. This will be your proof of payment and details of session booked.
