This rate is only available on online payment platforms (MyParking App and Virtual Pay Machine) at Lot 55, 58, 61 and 75. Active until June 30, 2023. Text to pay for your parking in any ParkPlus zone!To start a parking session, text the word "start" and then the four-digit ParkPlus zone number to PPLUS (77587). To end a parking session, text the word "end" and then the four-digit ParkPlus zone number to PPLUS (77587). Note: to successfully start and end a parking session, you will need to spell the words "start" and "end" correctly. However, they are not case-sensitive. For example, "START", "Start" and "start" will all work to start a parking session. The ParkPlus system sends confirmation texts to confirm when a parking session has been started or ended. You must receive the confirmation text to be sure that your session has started or ended. If you are not sure, you can call 403-537-7275 and the system will tell you if you have an active session. Please note: you must be a ParkPlus cell phone account holder to use this feature. Don't have a ParkPlus cell phone account? Sign up for an account at https://m-cpa.parkplus.ca/login.html. Click on Create Account and follow the instructions. Why Have "Start" and "End"?A number of our customers experienced duplicate texts being sent automatically by their cell phone carrier to the ParkPlus system. This would cause parking sessions to either start or stop without the customer's consent. By specifying whether you want the text to start or stop a parking session, it removes the potential for duplicate text messages to affect a parking session. Why didn't my text activate a parking session?A parking session may not be successfully activated for several reasons, including if there are parking restrictions in effect, if there are insufficient funds in the account, or if the zone number is entered incorrectly. Below is a guide for the messages you may receive from PPLUS.
How it Works
1. After you have parked, text 77587 with the word "start" and the four-digit ParkPlus zone number. For example, if you parked in zone 2441, in the phone number field, type 77587 and in the message field, type "start 2441" and send the text. 2. A confirmation text will be sent to you notifying you that your parking session has been successfully started. If you do not receive a confirmation text or receive a text that states the system is unavailable, please call into ParkPlus at 403-537-7275 to confirm the parking transaction. 3. After returning to your vehicle, text "end" and the zone number to 77587 to end your parking session. 4. A confirmation text will be sent to you to notify you that your parking session has ended.
Please note: standard carrier message rates may apply.
