Touch N Go – how to pay
Touch N Gos are small blue boxes that require you to pay by smartphone. If surrounding parking meters are out of order or offline, Touch N Gos will be unaffected. Touch N Gos use Near Field Communication (NFC), a technology allowing communication between two electronic devices over short distances.
All Touch N Go boxes require the use of the PayStay Guest website or PayStay App to make a transaction. You will be redirected automatically when holding your smartphone close to the box via Near Field Communication (NFC) techonology. You can also access PayStay Guest via the QR code on the front of the box.
Each Touch N Go box contains a unique code that corresponds with the Paystay Guest website link and the location of the box. You must use the specific NFC or QR code web link on the Touch N Go located near your vehicle. This ensures payment security for users and accuracy when monitoring parking through geotagging for Council.
