How does it work?

Example n°1: I need to do a quick half-hour shop in the green zone

Parking is free.

  • I enter my reg number using the keyboard on the parking meter
  • I take my parking ticket and can park up to the time stated on the ticket

Example n°2: I park and get a 90 minute parking ticket (2,20 €) but my shopping trip takes longer than expected

  • I extend my parking time (max. 2.5 hours) at the parking meter:
    - by going to the parking meter
    - or without having to move with the Flowbird app installed on my mobile

Example n°3: I park in the green or yellow zone and exceed my parking time (max. 2.5 hours)

  • A sworn officer drafts a FPS fee for up to 20 € which I receive at home. The amount of the last ticket is deducted from the FPS fee.
