Receipts

The system will generate a guest receipt. Users will need to rely on emailed receipts for anything relating to ticket dispute and end-of-year tax submissions.

Note You cannot convert or move guest transactions to an existing PayByPhone account (mobile phone) number. Only customers with a registered account can access historical receipts online.

Duplicate payments

If you transact in Guest mode and close the app, you may not see the countdown clock when you relaunch the app (this is device specific). Be careful: this doesn't mean the session didn't start! We are advising customers to pay close attention to the following transaction confirmation screen. If you sign into your regular registered account after transacting as a guest, the session will not be displayed. You can also review your guest receipt to check if the payment was processed.

In the case of duplications, refund policies will vary by parking provider. Please click here for further information on refund policies

Each platform will give you the option to Sign in, Register, or Continue without an Account. A notification appears alerting customers when they are in Guest mode.
