New Digital Payment System Installed for Skokie Swift Commuters

On May 1, 2014, new digital payment terminals were installed at the Dempster-Skokie CTA train station to replace the former token payment system.  The new payment terminals are located inside the train station and accept coins, paper bills and credit/debit card payments for commuter parking.  

 

The daily rates will remain the same.

Commuters still need to remember the space number where they park, enter that space number into one of the new payment terminals, insert payment and take a receipt.

Payment receipts can be kept as proof of payment, but do not need to be displayed in vehicles.

 

The payment terminals cannot make change nor can they provide refunds.  Commuters who wish to pay with cash are encouraged to bring exact payment amount; $3 for the South Lot or $2 for the North Lot.

 

In addition, a mobile payment app is now available from Passport Parking to make parking making payments by phone.  To register for a mobile payment account, commuters can:

 

1.    Download the PassPort Parking app from the Apple App Store or Google play;

2.    Register online at m.ppprk.com; or

3.    Call (847) 380-4332
