Paying for a parking permit

Last updated: November 4, 2026

Residents pay for their parking permits from their own ParkingPass account once their application is approved. Share these steps when a resident asks how to pay, activate, or renew a permit.

Who can do this: Residents.

Before you start

  • The resident's application must be approved. Payment options don't appear until it is. See Reviewing a new resident application.

  • The resident needs a card. They can add a new one or use a saved one at checkout.

Steps

  1. Sign in at app.parkingpass.com.

  2. Click Payment System+ in the left sidebar.

  3. Click Make a Payment.

  4. Scroll to the Parking Permits section.

  5. Select each vehicle being activated or renewed.

  6. Click Checkout.

  7. Review the Order Preview.

  8. Click Proceed to Checkout.

  9. Add a new card or choose a saved one, then complete the payment.

What happens next

As soon as the payment goes through:

  • The permit activates right away.

  • A confirmation appears on screen.

  • The resident gets a confirmation email.

  • The receipt appears under Payment History.

Important notes

Troubleshooting

  • If the payment fails, the permit stays inactive until a payment goes through. See A resident's permit payment failed.

  • If the billing address doesn't verify, the resident can select Use different billing address than profile address and enter the address exactly as it appears on their card statement.
