ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – The City of St. Augustine announced on Monday it will no longer accept ParkNow Cards as a form of parking payment at city-managed pay stations, parking lots, and the Downtown Historic Parking Facility.
On Sept. 30 at 9 p.m., the city will permanently discontinue the ParkNow Cards due to the phasing-out of the card reader technology.

“In 2023, we began this process by rolling out the license plate registration for St. Johns County residents so they could still benefit from the resident discount,” commented Assistant City Manager Reuben Franklin. “We want people who still have the ParkNow Cards to use them while they’re still good – before October 1st of this year. Once residents register their license plate online, they will no longer need the card.”
When parking at a surface lot or parking space, cardholders will enter the registered license plate number at the city parking kiosk to receive the discount. When parking at the parking garage, the electronic license plate reader will recognize the registered plate number and automatically apply the St. Johns County Resident discount rate.
The city said a full refund of the balance on the card will be issued to the cardholder for any ParkNow Card surrendered in person to the Parking Division at 50 Bridge Street before Dec. 29, 2028.
