Dubai’s parking operator Parkin will begin phasing out cash payments at parking meters from 1 June, the company announced, as part of the emirate’s broader push toward cashless transactions and digital services.
The change will be introduced gradually across metered parking locations. Nol card payments will continue to be accepted at machines, and drivers can also pay through the Parkin app, SMS, the Dubai Now app, or the Roads and Transport Authority’s own application.
Parkin said the move is intended to make the payment experience faster, more secure, and more flexible for users, in line with Dubai’s digital innovation agenda.
