The City of Sault Ste Marie, MI introduces 100% mobile pay parking with Passport

Passport Parking app now available to use at all on and off-street parking spaces

SAULT STE MARIE, Mich., May 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The City of Sault Ste Marie is launching an easier way to pay for parking with Passport, a mobility software and payments company that is trusted by cities to manage their parking and mobility infrastructure. Beginning today, the Passport Parking app will be the only accepted form of payment for all on and off-street parking spaces throughout the City.

Paying to park through Passport Parking is convenient and simple. After downloading the free app, a user enters the respective zone number, license plate number and the desired length of time for parking. App users can receive notifications when their sessions are about to expire, extend their sessions remotely, and view receipts and parking history.

"From hiking, to shopping, to enjoying entertainment, providing an easier way to pay to park will empower our community to enjoy doing whatever it is that they enjoy most in Sault Ste Marie."
