Contactless payment for campus meter parking begins August 17

MSUM is offering the ParkMobile app as a pay-by-phone solution to access metered parking spaces on campus. This solution replaces our current pay stations in the M1 and M5 lots, by Owens Hall and the CMU and all coin meters on campus. 

Parking in those spaces is now easier and more convenient with payment options through ParkMobile. Visit the ParkMobile website, download the mobile app, scan a QR code, or call the toll-free number on the ParkMobile sign (877.727.5976). To register for a ParkMobile account, you will need your license plate number and payment method.  

What you need to know:

  • $2 per hour + $0.35 cent transaction fee. (4 hour maximum).  
  • No reservations or prepayment. All transactions are real-time. You should be parked in the space before you begin your parking transaction.
  • Your parking transaction is for a specific ParkMobile Zone. If you move to another zone, you will have to pay again.
  • Zone numbers are located on the ParkMobile sign in front of your parking space.
  • ParkMobile provides a mobile payment service, including help support. 
  • Pay for parking via a smartphone app, toll-free number or the web. 
  • No need to stop at a meter or pay station.
  • No credit card necessary after you complete your account set up. 
  • No coins/cash needed. 
  • ParkMobile can send reminders by text message so you can extend your parking time from your cell phone. 
  • Use your account wherever ParkMobile is offered.
