Increase to Minimum Increment for PayByPhone App Transactions

Starting Wednesday, April 16, 2025, the City of St. John’s will implement a minimum 15-minute increment for paid parking when using the PayByPhone app.

Currently, users can purchase or extend parking in one-minute increments. This change is in response to a revised payment structure from PayByPhone, the City's electronic payment vendor. The 15-minute minimum helps reduce transaction fees paid by the City while aligning with the existing minimum time required at pay stations in the same areas.

The change was approved by City Council on April 9. For further details, review the decision note.
