St. Augustine will stop accepting ParkNow cards this fall

City of St. Augustine City of St. Augustine

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. — Starting Tuesday, September 30, at 9 p.m., the City of St. Augustine will no longer accept ParkNow Cards as payment for parking.

This change affects all city-managed pay stations, parking lots, and the Downtown Historic Parking Facility.

The city is removing the cards due to outdated card reader technology. But residents of St. Johns County can still get the local parking discount by registering their license plate online.

Once a license plate is registered, there’s no need to use a card. At kiosks, residents will type in their plate number to receive the discount, and the parking garage will automatically recognize the plate and apply the reduced rate.

“We want people to use their ParkNow Cards while they’re still good,” Assistant City Manager Reuben Franklin said. “After October 1, they won’t work.”

Anyone with money left on a ParkNow Card can get a full refund by turning the card in at the Parking Division office at 50 Bridge Street.

Refunds will be available through Friday, December 29, 2028.

To register your license plate for the discount, visit ParkStAug.com.
