PayByPhone is now live at our car parks

pay by phone west devon

 

If you want to pay for parking through your phone at one of our council owned car parks, you will need to use the PayByPhone app.

If you prefer to pay by cash at one of our machines, don’t worry you still can.

Don’t have the PayByPhone app yet? You can download it at:

Protecting you from potential scams is so important to us, which is why we do not use QR codes in any of our car parks.

We want to protect your data as best as we can and keep your details safe, that is why the PayByPhone app requires:

  • Android: Version 9 or higher
  • iOS: Version 16 or higher

We understand this may affect a small number of users with older devices. If you’re unable to update your software, there are other ways to pay with PayByPhone.

How to update your software:

  • For Android: Settings > About phone > Software version  
  • For iOS: Settings > General > About
