Paying for parking

PayByPhone logo - our telephone payment provider for parkingOur provider for paying for parking sessions in our car parks and on-street is PayByPhone.

How to use PayByPhone

You will need to either download the PayByPhone app from the PayByPhone website, App Store or Google Play on your smartphone or ring the telephone number displayed on the side of the Pay and Park machine or signpost. You can download the app before going to park.

Once your account is confirmed, you enter the location code that can be found on the side of the Pay and Park machine, choose how long you want to stay and confirm. Your vehicle registration number and payment option can be stored in the app.

Payments can also be made by calling 0330 400 7275 or texting 65565. The PayByPhone website provides further information, as well as demonstration videos on how to use the app and service.

PayByPhone also has an interactive voice response self-service support centre on its website.

What if I don't have a smartphone?

We currently have no plans to remove existing Pay and Park machines so the option to obtain parking sessions by cash or card will remain.

What does it cost?

The service charge (convenience fee) is five pence, which will be added to the cost of the parking session requested.

Additional services, such as text reminders, are 20 pence each.
