### Reviewed by Carolyn Gill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is very economical, and it is also an easy process. You just drive up and scan your credit card to be let in to the car park.

### Reviewed by Darrel Silva ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Stress less shopping. Park and forget. Top up when needed without having to run to the parking slot.

Easy to access! Fair pricing and easy to pay and go! Couldn't ask for a less stress-free parking system.

Easier to use than having a load of change in your pocket. Especially in town!

What Parksy VIP Covers

## When Parking Goes Wrong, We've Got Your Back

### A Real Person, Not a Queue

Fined, towed, clamped or lost? Message us by email, WhatsApp, Messenger or SMS and a real person replies with the next steps, from the day you join.

[Ways to reach us →](https://www.parksy.com/contact)

### Unfair Fines & Tickets

A real person reviews your appeal and sends a follow-up plan. You also get 10x entries in the weekly Fine & Tow Rescue Payout Draw, up to US$259, after a 30-day wait.

### Towed, Booted or Clamped

We tell you where your car went, what it costs and how to get it back fast. Rescue starts after a 30-day wait, and release fees can be won back in the weekly payout draw.

## VIP Membership FAQs

### Do I need VIP to search for parking?

No. Searching, comparing prices and contacting owners is free and stays free. VIP adds Price Watch on every search, every filter and a real person when parking goes wrong.

### Does Parksy charge a booking fee?

No. You deal with the owner directly, with no commission and no markups.

### What Is Included in the VIP Membership?

VIP is a parking assistance membership. It includes everything in the free plan, plus one-tap help from a real person by email, WhatsApp, Messenger or SMS (We reply within 24 hours, usually much sooner); unfair fine and ticket guidance, where a real person reviews your appeal and you get 10x entries in the weekly Fine & Tow Rescue Payout Draw, which can pay back a fine or tow and clamp release fees (up to US$259); towed or clamped rescue help; Price Watch on every search; every search filter, higher AI limits and saved history; more search and Price Watch alerts; the Parking Made Easy eBook; and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Help from a real person starts the day you join. Fine draw payments and towed or clamped rescue start after a 30-day wait. VIP is a help service and membership, not insurance.

### What Is the Difference Between the Free Plan and VIP?

The free plan covers searching, contacting and listing at no cost, plus the free AI tools (the AI Appeal Writer, Sign Scanner and Find My Car), and it stays free. VIP adds a real person when parking goes wrong: help with unfair fines and tickets, towed or clamped cars and lost cars, 10x entries in the weekly Fine & Tow Rescue Payout Draw, plus Price Watch, every filter and higher AI limits. Saved places with new-space alerts are free for everyone with an account. Put simply, the free plan gives you the tools; VIP puts a real person on your side.

### How Does the Weekly Fine & Tow Rescue Payout Draw Work?

It is one weekly draw with one winner. Email us a photo of your parking fine, or your itemised tow, impound, clamp release, car park lost-ticket or overstay receipt, to enter that week's draw. Entries close 11:59pm Sunday (Sydney time) and one winner is drawn each Monday at 10:00am, and we transfer the amount of that fine or those release fees directly to the winner, up to US$259. Every registered Parksy account can enter, and the fine or rescue must be dated after a 30-day wait; VIP members go in with 10x entries. Police seizures for driving offences and costs covered by insurance are excluded. Separately, the AI Appeal Writer that drafts your appeal letter is free with any account.

### Can I Cancel My Subscription Anytime?

Yes! You can cancel your VIP membership at any time from your account settings. There are no cancellation fees or long-term commitments. Your membership will remain active until the end of your billing period. See [How to Cancel Parksy VIP](https://www.parksy.com/cancel-vip).

### What Is the 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee?

If you're not satisfied with your VIP membership for any reason within the first 30 days, ask for a refund in My Account and we'll refund your most recent payment. No questions asked. See [Ask for a Refund](https://www.parksy.com/account/refund).

### What Is the Difference Between Monthly and Yearly Plans?

Both plans include every VIP benefit. The yearly plan is US$60 a year and the monthly plan is US$10 a month.

### Can I Upgrade From Monthly to Yearly?

Yes, you can upgrade your plan at any time from your account settings. You'll receive a prorated credit for any unused time on your monthly plan.

### What Payment Methods Do You Accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal. Every payment is encrypted and processed securely.

### Is My Payment Information Secure?

Absolutely. Your payment method details are encrypted and never stored on our servers. We are PCI compliant and use industry-standard security measures.
