How do I start, extend, and end an express parking session?

With express parking, you can park without creating a Parkster account. It's a convenient way to park for those who are not yet frequent Parkster users or who only plan to use Parkster for a short period - for example, during your vacation ☀️.

If you already have an account with Parkster and wish to use express parking, you need to log out of your account first.

Due to contractual reasons, some of our clients have decided that this value-added service cannot be offered in their parking lots. If you attempt to start on such a parking lot, you will instead be prompted to create an account to start a ticket.


How do I start an express parking?

  1. Open the Parkster app
  2. Choose the country where you want to park (Sweden, Germany, or Austria) -> Get started
  3. Enter the zone code or choose a zone near your current location
  4. Select the duration of your parking using the slider
  5. Click on the "Add vehicle and park" button
  6. Choose payment
  7. Select a vehicle or add a new one
  8. Follow the steps for your chosen payment method
  9. Your parking has started and your active parking can be found under "Tickets"


How do I extend an express parking?

  1. Open the Parkster app
  2. Go to "Tickets" and click on the ongoing parking that you want to extend
  3. Click on the "Change end time" button
  4. Select your new end time using the slider
  5. Confirm with the 'Confirm end time' button
  6. Your parking has now been extended and your active parking can be found under "Tickets"

When you extend your ticket before the end time is reached, it is considered a new purchase. This means a new reservation for a new amount. Please note that the new amount is calculated from when you originally started the ticket. The previous reservation is refunded/released immediately upon confirmation of the extension.

How do I end an express parking?

  1. Open the Parkster app

If you end your parking early, the remaining amount will be automatically refunded to your account based on your chosen payment method. If you are already using express parking in your country and want to continue doing so in another country, you must first close your express account and then follow the steps for "How to start an express parking".
