Once you’ve downloaded the free RingGo app and registered, you can also pay to park in tens of thousands of RingGo locations nationwide.

How does RingGo work?

To download the RingGo app, go to your phone’s App Store or Google Play Store and search for RingGo. Once you’ve downloaded the app, set up your account by registering a few details and when you want to park, you can pay in seconds. 

Once you’re parked in an area where RingGo is offered, tell us where you are by entering the four or five digit location number, as shown on signage where you’re parking.  

For example, if a RingGo sign displays “1234”, this would be the location code you enter. Then tell us how long you’re staying and confirm your payment details. 

If your parking is running out and you want to stay longer, you can extend your time wherever you are from the RingGo app. Just select your current session from the sessions tab and the app will ask you how long you want to extend for. Choose a time, confirm, and you’re good to go. 

With RingGo, you’ll never need a ticket from the machine again. Civil Enforcement Officers know you’re parked with the service by checking the vehicle registration on their handheld devices, so there’s no need to trek to and from, or queue at, the parking machine.
