Responsibility
  • It is your responsibility as the renter to ensure the date, time and location of your reservation is correct.
  • It is your responsibility as the renter to ensure you cancel unneeded reservations in accordance with the cancelation policies below, and to ensure long-term reservations are terminated when they are no longer needed.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure your and/or your guest's vehicle(s) are properly registered in the app at all times.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you display any physically required permits, placards, or other materials that may be required law or by the parking operator for the spot and/or location you are parked in.
  • It is your responsibility as the renter to ensure you are parked only in the spot(s) or specific identified area(s) in which you have an active reservation, and only for the duration of your reservation.
Cancellations and Refunds
  • Flexible-date monthly reservations: May be canceled at any point, before or after the reservation begins. Terminated flexible-date reservations are automatically prorated, and you will receive a refund for unused time.
  • Fixed-date monthly reservations: May be canceled until the start time of the reservation. Once the reservation starts, it cannot be canceled, and is non-refundable.
  • Short-term reservations: May be canceled until the start time of the reservation. Once the reservation starts, it cannot be canceled and is non-refundable.

  • Refunds will not be provided for unused portions of fixed-date or short-term reservations, or reservations that have already ended.
  • Cancelation requests for fixed-date monthly reservations are handled on a case-by-case basis. If approved, (1) you are responsible for paying through the end of the current billing cycle, and (2) must pay an early termination fee of 1 month's parking fee at your current monthly rate for your parking space.
  • Spot change requests for fixed-date monthly reservations are handled on a case-by-case basis. A penalty fee of $15 will apply for any spot changes during a fixed end date monthly reservation.
  • Report any parking problems using the Parkade app, within the first hour after the reservation started, to be eligible for a full refund at Parkade's discretion. Reporting issues more than an hour past the start time may allow renters to receive a prorated refund for unused time, at Parkade's discretion.
  • Parkade and/or the parking operator reserve the right to modify or terminate parking reservations/rentals at their discretion.
  • Any requests for refunds that fall outside of the conditions above may be considered, but will be provided only at Parkade's sole discretion.
  • Any refund, if provided, will be made to the originating payment account. Refunds cannot be redirected to a different payment account.
Parking Problems
  • Report any parking problems using the Parkade app, including but not limited to unauthorized use of your reserved spot by another party, or obstructions and/or impediments that prevent your safe use of the reserved spot.
  • In situations where another vehicle is in your reserved spot, it is your responsibility to promptly report the problem through the Parkade app. The app will generally show you a set of immediate options to choose from, which may include renting a temporary, alternative parking spot. Even if no alternative spots are available, you must be sure not to park in another spot without being approved to park there by Parkade.
  • When provided a temporary spot as a result of a parking problem, the spot options provided are not guaranteed to be in the same location, or have the same features as your original space.
  • Temporary spots are typically provided for a maximum of 16 hours. You must vacate the temporary space by the end of this period, or before, and relocate to your original space. If there is still a vehicle parked in your original parking space, you must use the app to report the issue again.
  • You must follow the problem reporting process within the Parkade app to receive a temporary space, if eligible. Refunds will not be provided for reservations created outside of this process, even if your space was occupied or inaccessible.
  • Parking in another spot, even if your spot is occupied or inaccessible, without authorization from Parkade will result in penalty fees and/or towing of your vehicle.
  • Submitting a falsified report of any kind may result in termination of your Parkade account.

Penalty fees may vary on factors including but not limited to the number of violations, severity of violation, or specific rule violations.
