What is Automatic Number Plate Recognition Technology?
ANPR is a state of the art technology which makes paying for parking quick, easy and secure.
PayByPhone offers Auto Payments, an automated payment system which records when a vehicle enters and exits a car park, billing the account holder's payment account accordingly so that there is no need to process a transaction manually each time you park. Powered through Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology, customers must be a registered PayByPhone parking user to utilise Auto Payments, easily accessed via your individual online account.
Please Note: Once opted-in, your Auto Payments will be applicable to all Transport for London underground NCP car parks where service is available. The payment is automated, account holders whose accounts are active will not run the risk of receiving any Parking Charge Notices’ for registered vehicles.

How does it work?
ANPR technology is being offered at London Underground car parks. It is integrated with the PayByPhone cashless payment service. Your entry and exit times in the car park are monitored, ensuring you pay the correct amount for your parking session. To make things even easier, you are able to register multiple vehicles on your Auto Payments account.
