- When you park in your space, use the ParkMobile smartphone application or call the toll-free number indicated on the lot sign. Enter your zone number, located on the sign near the pay station. This number is different for every parking lot and can be saved via the smartphone app. Select the amount of time you wish to park.
- If time limits apply in the lot where you parked, ParkMobile will send a text 15 minutes prior to the expiration of your paid parking. You may select to add more time or return to your car on time.
When you register, you sign up to pay by credit card using our secure site. Payments are usually posted the same day, so you can login to your ParkMobile account and see your parking transactions on your ParkMobile page.
It depends on where you are parking. A toll-free number is posted at every site, or download the app and it will save you time.
It depends on the parking restrictions in the lot you’ve parked in. Your parking transaction will continue for the duration you have selected.
Contact ParkMobile right away. Give them the details and they’ll help you sort it out.
When you use the mobile app or call to start the parking session, you enter a zone number. ParkMobile’s system recognizes your cell phone number, connects it to your license plate number and activates your parking in that zone. The parking officer verifies your parking session by matching the license plate to the zone number.
ParkMobile cannot stop parkers from parking in the wrong place or taking up two spaces or any other violations that may apply. Avoid tickets and towing by activating your parking session, and don’t overstay the posted time limit. Please read the posted signage in each lot to be certain the ParkMobile is in effect at the time you are parking.
If you receive a ticket please contact Parking Services Customer Service Specialists at 303-735-PARK (7275) or email parking@colorado.edu.
Using pay by phone means you don't need to walk back to your car to leave a receipt on your dash. As long as you use the pay by phone system correctly, you should not be fined. Review the question above regarding parking enforcement officers.
