SpotHero helps you get everywhere, easier by making it fast and convenient to find and reserve parking in major cities. Plus, when you book your parking spot in advance, you can save up to 50%. SpotHero gives you access to thousands of garages, lots, and valets nationwide.
SpotHero is 100% reliable — it's the go-to garage app here and I've used it dozens of times without issue. You just tell the valet you paid on SpotHero and then they give you the ticket like usual. When you leave the garage they'll scan the QR code from SpotHero and you're good to go.
To pay ahead using the ParkNYC app or a web browser, select max time or select the amount of time until meter regulations begin. For example: If you arrive at a parking location at 8:40 AM and meter regulations begin at 9 AM with a 1-hour time limit, you can purchase a max time session in the Park NYC app.
How much will a parking ticket cost? Parking tickets in NYC range from $45-125, depending on the nature of the violation. For a list of all NYC parking rules, violations, and corresponding fines, visit the official website here.
