Pay for parking online or by phone

You can pay to park using your mobile phone across Lichfield District Council’s city centre car parks using PayByPhone. Simply register with PayByPhone online and you will never have to worry about finding loose change to park in Lichfield again. 

What are the benefits?

  • You don't need to carry loose change to pay for parking
  • If you are running late returning to your car, you can extend your payment at the touch of a button (provided you haven't exceeded the maximum stay in a car park)
