Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the conventional Electronic Parking System (EPS) and the new barrier-free system?

The new barrier-free system identifies drivers through their vehicle registration number instead of their In-Vehicle Unit (IU) number. It is also integrated with the mobile app, GoParkin to allow drivers to pay for their parking fees via mobile payment instead of stored-value cards.

Do I need to install an additional reader in my vehicle for the deduction of car park fees?

No. The deduction of car park fees can be made using two methods:

  1. Registration of vehicle with the GoParkin app or web portal (https://portal.goparkin.io) and select credit/debit card payment.
  2. NETS/Cash card/CEPAS/EZ-link card payments are available via the In-Vehicle Unit (IU). Payment via NETS/Cash Card is available at the exit terminal of car park gantries.

Do note that enforcement action will be taken if you do not pay the parking charges.

Is there a grace period for passenger drop-offs?

Yes, there is a 15-minutes grace period.


Do I have to register for an account if my purpose is to drop off/pick up passengers?

If you drop off/pick up passengers within the 15 minutes grace period, payment will not be required, therefore no-account registration on GoParkin is required.

However, motorists are encouraged to register for an account with the GoParkin app or web portal (https://portal.goparkin.io), in case you remain in the car park beyond the grace period.

Why do I need a mobile number for my GoParkin account?

Your mobile number will be used as your account identifier, and SMS will be sent to your mobile number for password recovery and 2FA.

How do I activate my parking session via GoParkin?

Your parking session will automatically begin when your vehicle enters the car park and end when your vehicle exits the car park. You can view your parking session on the GoParkin app.

If you only register for a GoParkin account after you enter the car park, your parking session will also be available on the GoParkin app.

Do I need to leave the mobile app on all the time when I am using the car park?

No, the parking charges will be automatically charged and updated in your GoParkin account.

Do I have to register for an account before entering the car park?

You do not need a registered GoParkin account to enter into the car park. The system will register your parking session the moment your vehicle enters the car park and the charges will either be:

  1. billed from your registered GoParkin account if you have set one up after entering the car park, or
  2. deducted from your cash card/CEPAS/NETS/EZ-link card if you have not registered for a GoParkin account

Do note that enforcement action will be taken if you do not pay the parking charges.
