PayByPhone: Paying for Parking in Oceanside Just Got Easier

Paying for parking for residents and visitors in Oceanside, CA, has just gotten easier thanks to the simplicity of cashless parking.

The City has partnered with PayByPhone, a global leader in mobile parking payments, to roll-out its services where paid parking is required involving more than 1,600 off-street parking lot stalls, with plans to implement toward on-street spaces in the future.

Jessica Farrell, Parking Enforcement Supervisor, City of Oceanside, says, “We are delighted to offer residents and visitors to our beautiful City the secure, fast option of cashless parking for the first time. People no longer have to remember to have their bank cards, credit cards or cash to pay for parking, or to rush back to their vehicles to add more time to avoid getting a citation, or worse, cut short an enjoyable beach day because they don’t have any more money on hand. PayByPhone offers our residents and visitors great flexibility when they park. They can start and extend their parking sessions in a matter of seconds through the PayByPhone app, so they can fully enjoy vacation-mode for as long as they had planned when visiting some of our key attractions like the iconic Oceanside Pier, the Supergirl Pro Jam or any of the other fun events held on our beaches.”

Parkers using PayByPhone also have access to the app’s Maps and the Nearby Parking features. The Maps feature allows them to locate parking before they leave for their destination and to pin their vehicle location onto the map once they have parked. The Nearby Parking feature instantly provides them with the closest PayByPhone parking location number. And the app is available in 14 languages, making it inclusive for the many tourists who visit the City.

Carmen Donnell, Managing Director NA for PayByPhone, says, “We are thrilled to launch PayByPhone in the City of Oceanside. We are very happy PayByPhone is making the parking experience as hassle-free as possible for residents and visitors to this beautiful coastal area. People have busy lives so now they don’t need to stress about carrying money to park. Our app simplifies things so they can get on with what matters most to them, without having to worry about parking. We encourage drivers to download the PayByPhone app now, so they can use the service immediately. Registration takes less than 30 seconds.”
