What Users Are Saying

App didn’t accept payment from two different cards, had to walk all the way back to my car in the cold to pay. Doesn’t take Apple Pay. pretty shameful knowing that the government sold all the parking spaces to private companies like this

Really? You’re going to mail me a check the I close my account because you insist on $20 minimum recharge amounts? How about crediting it back to the credit card? Good app for Chicagoans, sucks for out-of-towners and given that none of the three meters I parked at would actually accept coins, I had ...

Incredibly inconvenient for transients, maybe it’s good if you’re living in Chicago and need to use it often.

Horrible app, I’m locked out of my account and I have to have my credit card that is 5 years old to reset it!!!

Why can’t you just add a custom amount to your wallet? Why can’t you have multiple cards? Why can’t you transfer your parking to another zone? This app Is terrible, clunky, and outdated.

Not easy to reset PIN. They ask for your credit card information to update PIN and if it doesn’t match what they have on file there’s no easy way to change payment on the app.

I cannot get this stupid thing to work.

Didn’t accepted one of my two credit cards. Very old school design, from 2000’s. No parking for less than 30 min, no Apple Pay. Outdated service. For Chicago this is fiasco.
