The creation of a program for paying for parking in Moscow was a logical continuation of the government's work on the introduction of paid parking. This process started several years ago. The first special markings for parking appeared in the center of the capital. Then the official Moscow parking systematically expanded its territory. To date, almost all areas of the city are divided into zones in which it is necessary to pay a certain amount for parking a personal car. The fee ranges from 40 to 80 rubles per hour.

With the advent of the first paid car places, the question naturally arose of how to pay for them. The simplest solution at that time was the installation of numerous parking meters. These are special terminals that are installed in areas where parking payment rules have already entered into force. Each parking meter corresponds to a parking number. It is not difficult to pay for the services of the capital's parking in this way, the terminals accept bank cards and cash.

But it is not always convenient to use a stationary parking meter. Moscow has a huge number of motorists. Finding a free seat even in a paid zone is not an easy task. If you managed to leave the car only at the opposite end from the machine that accepts money, then you will have to spend time getting to it, and then pay for this new metropolitan service. And if suddenly a car enthusiast forgot his wallet at home, it will not be possible to use the parking meter at all.

For the convenience of drivers, it was decided to develop alternative payment methods that would facilitate this process for citizens wishing to use the parking lot legally. This is how a program for paying for parking spaces in Moscow appeared, which can be used literally without leaving the car.

How does the parking space payment program work?

It will not be difficult to pay for parking time in the center or any other district of Moscow if you use the program on its official website called Moscow Parking or download the application to your mobile phone

The algorithm of actions when paying from the site is extremely simple:

  1. You need to go to the Moscow parking website and go through a simple registration. To get a password, you need to send an SMS with the text "PIN" to the short number 7757. In the response message, a code will be sent, which is the password. A phone number will be entered as a login.
  2. If you do not want to register, you can enter the service through an account in one of the social networks (Facebook, VKontakte or Twitter).
  3. In a special section for replenishing the parking account, you must fill in all the columns, and then click the "Park" button.

It is worth remembering that payment for the service is made in advance. Otherwise, you can get an unpleasant surprise in the form of a fine for incorrect parking. If a citizen paid more than he spent in the allotted place, the money does not burn out, but is credited to the parking account in the program. They can be used later.

Those who leave the car in the paid zones of Moscow every day, arriving at work, can issue an auto payment by linking a bank card to their account in the Moscow parking program and specifying the time period.

The use of paid parking services in the capital of the Russian Federation implies the transfer of funds using one of the existing methods. Paying for parking through a mobile application is gaining popularity due to the greater convenience for motorists, the implementation of constant updates and the introduction of new features. In addition to the direct transfer of money, the application provides a lot of additional options for vehicle owners, thanks to which it is much easier to find a currently available place and determine whether the fare set on it suits the driver.

The principle of using the software

The Moscow Parking mobile application is one of the main tools used by motorists in the capital. According to statistics, the application is used by every third resident of the city and their number is steadily growing. Such a fairly large demand is due to the provision of a lot of opportunities for vehicle owners. They can not only transfer funds for parking, but also charge the amount determined by bringing to administrative responsibility. After registration, each motorist has a personal account, where all information related to his vehicle and the Moscow parking system gets and is stored.

In general, the functions of the application are as follows:

  • search for vehicles that were transported to the impound lot;
  • purchase of parking tickets;
  • payment of the accrued fine associated with violation of the established parking rules;
  • direct transfer of funds for parking services in real time.

It is interesting. According to new changes in the functionality of the mobile application, the parking payment program now allows users to independently correct errors that were made when transferring money for parking. In addition, it became possible to make a surcharge for parking. These features are expected to be available for a limited time and will be extended as needed.

Features of using the mobile version of the software

How to use the Moscow Parking app? First of all, you should download it for subsequent installation on your device. You can perform such an action by going to the official website of the Moscow Parking and finding the Software corresponding to the type of device of the motorist. In addition, you can go to special sites, among which the App Store or Google Play are especially worth noting. Having navigated to the required page, it will be enough to press the “Install” button on your device. After that, the smartphone will perform all the necessary actions on its own and the user will have to launch the already installed application.

Should know. In order to avoid falling into software that has nothing to do with the parking of the capital, you should carefully check the name of the application that will be installed. It should be called "Moscow Parking".

The software contains a visual instruction that reflects all the necessary actions that need to be performed in order to use the existing functions of the mobile application. It is worth noting that for those users who have an android installed or the device is represented by an iPhone, the instructions for use will not differ significantly.

Detailed description of the available menu

All information becomes available to the motorist only after he goes through the registration process, which is carried out by using the telephone number of the person (which is valid). After performing such an action, a code will come in the form of an SMS message, which will already need to be entered in the field indicated as PIN. The continuously improved features of the software, supplemented by new features, are as follows:

  1. The search map is a special feature provided to make it easier for motorists to find a free space in one of the city's parking lots. Such places will be marked in blue. All other functions almost completely repeat the functionality regarding the search for parking on the official website of the Moscow Parking Space. By choosing a particular parking lot, the motorist has the opportunity to get acquainted with the prices, find out about the tariffs during the day and at night (if they differ in a particular place).
  2. "Objects nearby." This option automatically determines the current location of the motorist and provides information on the parking lots available within a certain radius, where the owner of the car can leave it.
  3. Separate sections that will contain information on the owner of the car and the vehicle itself. Such sections are represented by the corresponding names "My cars", "History", "Penalties". It is possible to include certain vehicles in the list of those that will be contained in your personal account on the basis of official information received from state registration authorities. Thus, if a certain user is officially the owner of two, three or more machines, then all of them can be sequentially displayed in the software. Data on them will also be contained in your personal account.
  4. Direct payment for parking from a mobile application. In this case, the funds will be withdrawn from a special parking account, which will need to be replenished periodically.
  5. Search for a car in the impound lot. This option is especially required by motorists in a situation where the owner does not find his car at the place where he left it. In this case, quite often the vehicle is evacuated for violations and it will need to be picked up, having previously paid all the additional costs associated with maintaining the vehicle in such a section and transportation.
  6. Ability to change settings. To do this, you just need to install the necessary options that are responsible for tracking the route of the vehicle, sending news, the application language and others.

Important information. The personal account of the software user will contain information about both the fines paid and those that require the transfer of a certain amount.

The procedure for transferring funds

To use the application for paying for parking in Moscow, you will need to follow a few simple steps:

  1. After registering your personal account, enter it using your login and password.
  2. Top up the parking account or make sure that the amount of funds contained on it is sufficient to pay for the parking services of the Moscow parking system.
  3. Press the "Park" button.
  4. If it is necessary to extend the period of use or stop the countdown, the motorist will need to use similar buttons, similar in design to the buttons on music players;

Should know. Users use a mobile phone number as a login to enter their personal account.

When using the software, the driver may experience the following problems:

  • "no connection". To solve such a problem, you will need to find an access point to the network with a higher speed;
  • calculation of a non-existent fine. Such errors periodically occur when the system sends a message about the recovery measure not to the owner of the car, but to another user;
  • lack of information regarding the payment of the fine - it continues to be classified as unpaid. Such problems are solved on an individual basis with a financial institution that could have made errors in the transaction.

Using the Moscow Parking mobile application makes it much easier for motorists to perform many actions related to vehicles registered in relation to them. If any problems arise, it is worth remembering that the software contains a "Feedback" section, through which the user can send a complaint or suggestion related to the operation of the system.

Yandex. parking

Yandex.Parking shows on the map where parking spaces are left and helps you build a convenient route to the nearest one. At the same time, the application allows you to pay for parking in several ways: from a bank card, from a phone account, and using the Yandex.Money service. Also, the application will be able to remind you that the time of paid parking is coming to an end.

This application appeared in the App Store catalog quite recently, and it is very different from other parking services. Unlike competitors, ParkApp not only finds the nearest free parking lots (there are more than 9,000 of them in the application database), but also allows you to find out in advance which of the users is going to vacate a parking space. This was made possible thanks to a "smart" algorithm that learns about the driver's intention to leave the parking lot and informs other users nearby. The application also warns of approaching tow trucks, and in any unforeseen situation, it allows you to call the road assistance service.

parking Moscow

The application contains a database of parking lots at shopping centers, railway stations and airports, as well as paid and free parking lots in Moscow. In total, the service knows about 600 parking lots throughout the city. The application helps to get directions to the nearest free parking, taking into account the schedule of its work (the map displays parking lots that are open at the time of the call). Also, with the help of this service, the user can pay for his stay in a parking space.

Parkopedia


Like its counterparts, Parkopedia uses a database of parking spaces in its work and makes it possible to build a route to any of them. The difference between this service and its competitors is its “geography”. The fact is that the application works all over the world and, according to the assurances of the developers, will help you find parking spaces even in exotic countries.

We have selected applications that will make it easier to find and pay for parking, as well as provide an opportunity to fix its place. They will help motorists from the Russian capital.
