Parking on any university campus can be a daunting task. However, there's good news for students, faculty, staff and visitors who want more payment options for parking on campus.
Transportation and Parking Services is committed to making parking as smooth as possible, and to that end, they recently introduced PayByPhone as a new payment option for all metered parking on campus.
With this addition, there are now two convenient mobile parking apps, PayByPhone and ParkMobile, accepted for both metered, daily (H-1 and K-1 lots) and visitor parking (Structure 131) at Cal Poly.
Both apps provide a great cashless payment option as well as mobile alerts that notify users before their parking session is due to expire. With just a few taps on a phone, users can easily pay to park up to the parking zone’s maximum time limit.
What makes this addition even more convenient is that PayByPhone is widely used across the country, including the city of San Luis Obispo.
Both apps have a small $0.35 convenience fee, and are available for download on the App Store, Google Play, and the Windows Store. PayByPhone is also available for Apple Watch.
