Comments on PayStay for Android

★★★★★ Diane Roy · Aug 14, 2026
So easy, pay only for time used. No running back to car with not enough change. So simple even if you are not tech savy. Top up easy and safe, highly recommend this app
★★★★★ Kerrie McCann · Sep 9, 2026
Very easy to use & convenient...still easy & convenient(2yrs of consistent use), just park & pay!
★★★★☆ Jennifer Drew · Jul 21, 2026
This app allows you to enter the parking details from the comfort of the doctors' surgery. And I appreciate the reminder HOWEVER the reminder came an hour after I had driven off. I'd like to see it sooner if possible.
★★★★★ Andy Tuck · Oct 31, 2026
Auto debit topup cannot be disabled, will keep trying to debit your card the day after you park, even if you are not parking. Watch out for SMS charges do not accept that option for reminders. Close your account through the app "help" last item otherwise you will keep being charged. Almost feels like it's been set up, so you end up with a positive credit on your account you never spend.
★☆☆☆☆ Yumc · Aug 29, 2026
Disagree with the top-up system where you have to load fixed amounts into an in-app wallet. Should be, put money in and pay for a set of hours like any other parking meter. I couldn't find a physical parking meter and had to use this app. Unhappy.
★☆☆☆☆ Beanie · Jul 28, 2026
Scummy app that won't let you just get an app notification for near expired parking but instead charges for a sms to be sent. Also charges bank account to hold money in its own wallet which you have to pay parking from. Small but scummy things. Would never use if my uni didn't mandate this app.
